The Black Dog Tavern is a famous landmark in the heart of Vineyard Haven Harbor. The tavern opened in 1971, and has occupied a special place in the heart of Islanders and tourists alike.
Vineyard Haven, Massachusetts
King’s Tavern is in the oldest building in Natchez, built in 1769. Originally it was built as a block house for Fort Panmure during the British occupation of Natchez. Since there were no saw mills around, beams from an unseaworthy sailing ship were muled up from New Orleans and used for its construction.

The tavern appears to be haunted by a ghost identified as Madeline. She was supposedly the mistress of one of the original Tavern Keepers, Richard King, and was murdered by his wife out of jealousy. The bodies of a 16 year old girl with a dagger in her chest and two slaves were unearthed in the 1930's during a renovation of the fireplace by the Postalwaith family. Madeline will cause hard to open doors to swing open by themselves, and if staff say, “alright Madeline’” they then shut by themselves. Water unsuspected falls from the ceiling where there are no pipes, chains swing and hot spots appear on the bed upstairs. (from their website)
