Burnett's Corner, a gloomy spot in Groton, Connecticut, oozes historic charm. It's listed on the National Register of Historic Places, featuring a ghastly gallery of 18th, 19th, and early 20th-century architecture - a morbid mirror into Connecticut's past. The village takes its name from Richard Burnett, who operated the eerie Pequot Hotel. Over the years, Burnett's Corner morphed into a hub for grim businesses like a witch hazel mill and a twine production rope walk. Today, the Burnett's Corner Historic District boasts 30 chilling buildings and three sites, including a school, store, post office, an early Masonic hall, and a historic cemetery - all repurposed for haunted housing.
