306 Preston Road, Griswold, Connecticut (860) 376-5178
Nestled in Griswold, is the tiny and charming bed & breakfast, Homespun Farm. It boasts a well-tended garden, fruit orchards, and a koi pond (below). And if that’s not enough to draw you to Homespun Farm, how about a couple of ghosts?
There is a friendly ghost by the name of Old Man Simon, originally Simon Brewster, one of the original owners of the 260-year old property. Old Man Simon apparently likes to hover around the garden area, watching the current owners tending the gardens and orchards. Current owners, Ron and Kate Bauer purchased the property in 1996 and said they first came in contact with Brewster's ghost when they began working in the fields.
They later found out it was Old Man Simon after they described him to a guest, who happened to be a relative of the Brewster’s. The relative then showed them a picture of Simon Brewster and they realized it was him!
Now will you see Old Man Simon during a stay at Homespun Farm? Well, if you see a ghostly figure hovering over the orchards, it’s a good bet you spotted him.
Also, Mrs. Brewster, Old Man Simon’s wife, has also been felt. A watchful spirit in the house can be heard walking up the stairs at night.
The innkeepers want guests to know that these ghosts are more the friendly type, not scary.

The
Lighthouse Inn Resort captures that East coast feeling of summering
at one of those upscale, posh estates. If that's what you want,
you've got it here. With a twist....
To this day, the bride is still is
spotted reading quietly, walking down the halls or roaming through the
guest rooms still in her wedding gown.
Both
Kate and Ron had similar experiences with Old Man Simon “watching” them
from the side of their eye. Kate first experienced the ghost, but didn’t
reveal it until her husband revealed his ghostly experience. They both
“saw” the same figure of a man as well as they both had this “feeling”
he was guiding them how to prune properly.
