Haunted Benson Grist Mill Ghost Hunts
Venture into the shadows of Utah’s past with an electrifying ghost hunt at the Benson Grist Mill. Nestled between the rugged Cedar Mountains and the vast expanse of The Great Salt Lake Desert, this towering relic of pioneer times stands as a testament to the intense and frequent paranormal phenomena that envelop its wood and brick facade.
Constructed in 1854 under the directive of LDS Apostle Ezra Taft Benson, the grist mill emerged as a cornerstone for the early settlers of Tooele Valley. Despite its initial purpose to grind meal for pioneer families, the mill’s later years saw abandonment and decay until its restoration in the late 1980s. Now listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places, the mill’s eerie silence is broken by whispers of the past, making it one of Tooele County’s most foreboding landmarks.
The Paranormal
Prepare to confront the mill’s resident spirits, from the playful to the malevolent. Reports of paranormal activity include:
- Shadowy figures darting through the mill’s four stories.
- Poltergeist activity that disrupts the stillness of the night.
- Unexplained sounds, mists, and disembodied voices echoing through the air.
- Apparitions, including the sorrowful spirit of Alice, a young girl who met her untimely demise near the property.
- A mysterious red mass, captured on camera, lurking just beyond the mill’s walls.
- The diligent ghost of a former millworker, eternally bound to his labor.
- An angry spirit making his displeasure known through physical touch and unsettling noises.
Our ghost hunts not only promise an encounter with the otherworldly but also offer a unique glimpse into the pioneer era of Tooele Valley. As you explore the haunting ground of the Benson Grist Mill, be prepared for an experience that will test your nerve and challenge your skepticism. Will you sense the dark energy that pervades this historic site? Can you brave the touch of an unseen hand or the sudden whisper in the dark?

Just finished our VIP overnight at Hotel Metropolitan in Paducah! Ms. Venita and Julie were the absolute best! They both made sure we knew what we were doing with equipment, and gave us a fantastic guided tour and explained the history so well. Venita especially made an impression on my group. She is super friendly and definitely knows what she's doing. Can't wait to see her again! I wouldn't want anyone else!
My dad, my sister-in-law, and I stayed at The Metropolitan for a paranormal investigation, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was warm, inviting, and full of history — but what made our stay exceptional was the incredible staff, Julie and Venita. These two amazing women went above and beyond the entire time we were there. They walked us through all the investigation equipment, helped guide us throughout the night, and made us feel completely comfortable and right at home. Their hospitality was top-notch — from the snacks and drinks they provided to the delicious hot chocolate they made for us during our late-night exploring. Their kindness, patience, and passion for what they do turned our stay into something truly special. If you’re looking for a place filled with charm, comfort, and staff who genuinely care, The Metropolitan Hotel is the perfect choice. Our overnight stay exceeded every expectation. Highly recommend! I wouldn't want anyone else to tour with!! 👻✨🍫
My son and I went to belles grove plantation and it was the best time! We enjoyed everything! Miss V was great! We got a few pictures of something in the windows and I actually started crying which I NEVER would let my son see me cry! It was kinda spooky but awesome at the same time! The team is great and I highly recommend going on one of their tours! Thank u all for a great experience
I had an amazing experience with Haunted Rooms America at the Belle Grove Plantation in King George, VA. The staff was very informative and helpful explaining the various pieces of equipment.
We had such a great experience at the Metropolitan Hotel in Paducah Kentucky. 10/10 would recommend.
Super fun evening! would definitely recommend doing anything they are offering.
The staff was really knowledgeable about the location. Our group had a lot of fun trying the equipment. It's an experience I'll never forget! Thank you to David and his crew for an amazing night.
KY and Haunted Rooms America is amazing. KY was extremely friendly and willing to answer any questions we had when we attended the Haunted tour at the old st.james hospital in Butte,MT. I am looking forward to hopefully being able to join this amazing group and getting to work these events.
