Tour haunted locations around Juneau's historic downtown. Visit AmericanGhostwalks.com to book your adventure.

Featured on the TV series The Alaska Triangle and Portals to Hell, the Alaskan Hotel isn't just the oldest operating hotel in Juneau—it's also the most haunted. One chilling event occurred in Room 315, where in 2007, a Navy sailor specifically requested a haunted room and got more than he bargained for. After arguing loudly with an unseen presence, the sailor desperately scrawled "Help!" on the wall in his own blood and leaped from the third-story window. What could have compelled him to such ex...

Eagle Crest Haunted House
#519
10/14/2025

Quinn from Eagle Crest joins Capital Chat to discuss this years Haunted House Fundraiser.

Eaglecrest is not your average community ski area. We have a 1620′ vertical drop, 640+ acres, impressive backcountry access, and hardly a lift line. Powder lasts longer here! There are no roads into Juneau, Alaska— you have to live here, fly, or ferry to experience this powder paradise. Untracked snow, ridge hikes, and breathtaking views are more common than lift lines.

What we lack in luxury, we make up for in charm, solitude, and affordability; there’s no need to rush at Eaglecrest. Fixed...
