Portals to hell and murders galore. Have you heard of these haunted sites in Cincinnati?

With architecture dating back to the 1800s, it's no wonder that Cincinnati is home to several ghost stories. Many of the Queen City's spookiest spots have been featured on paranormal investigation shows like "Ghost Adventures" and made lists like the Travel Channel's Haunted Destinations.

Ghost and history tours make Cincinnati's creepy past accessible year-round, but October is a great time to brush up on the city's paranormal lore.

If you're looking for a scare, you've come to the right place. We've rounded up six supposedly haunted places in Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky worth digging into.

Cincinnati Music Hall

Built in 1878, Cincinnati Music Hall is known for its striking architecture and ghost stories.

Part of Music Hall was built on top of a potter's field, or burial grounds for poor people and immigrants who died without identification. These are the souls and spirits believed to still be roaming the halls, causing ghost sightings and unexplained sounds of music being played, according to employees.

See for yourself by going on one of the Music Hall's ghost tours. Be sure to register early, they are constant sell-outs.

The Ludlow Incinerator

An old garbage incinerator in the woods of Devou Park has been tied to several ghost stories over the years. Besides its dilapidated state and the lore that bodies were once burned there, the incinerator is also the site where the body of Delle Mae Miller, a 24-year-old woman, was found in 1967. She is thought to be one of serial killer Nolan Ray George's victims.

Unnamed Road, Ludlow, Kentucky.

Satan's Hollow

If, for whatever reason, you're hoping to find a "portal to hell," look no further than Blue Ash. A series of drainage tunnels located underneath the Cincinnati suburb earned the nickname Satan's Hollow as the alleged meetup place of local Satanists.

Visitors have reported hearing screams from the tunnels in the night and say they've seen apparitions and a demon, known as the Shadow Man, who guards the entrance to the underworld.

Sedamsville Rectory

The Sedamsville Rectory is so spooky, it's listed as a haunted destination by the Travel Channel. According to its Facebook page, the rectory was home to a priest accused of abusing children and animals. Visitors have claimed to suffer scratches and feel sudden changes in temperature, and former owner Terrie Scott said she was pushed by an invisible force.

After being featured on several shows, including "Ghost Adventures," "Haunted Collector" and "My Ghost Story," the rectory was closed off to public investigations in 2016.

639 Steiner St., Sedamsville.

Lick Road

This narrow, winding road off of W. Kemper Road dead-ends at the Richardson Forest Preserve, and is home to several firsthand experiences of paranormal activity, like hearing footsteps or screams in the nearby woods. Legend has it, if you flash your car headlights while on the road, a woman named Amy, purported to have been murdered there, will write "Help" in the condensation on your window.

However, no one named Amy, or anyone else, has been killed on Lick Road. According to Creepy Cincinnati, the legend likely started with the 1976 death of a teenage hitchhiker, Linda Dyer, whose body was found nearby.

Be warned, a hotbed of ghosts or not, Lick Road is dangerous to drive on at night and if you're tempted to venture past the gates into private property, don't.

Lick Road, Colerain Township.

Bobby Mackey's Music World

The site of a 19th-century slaughterhouse and later mafia-controlled nightclub is now known as Bobby Mackey's Music World, owned by country singer and Kentucky native Bobby Mackey. Along with live music, dancing and a mechanical bull, the Wilder, Kentucky, venue is home to several ghost stories, many of which stem from murders in the area.

Pearl Bryan's decapitated body was found in 1896 two miles away from the nightclub, in Fort Thomas. There's also the unsubstantiated story of Joanna, a pregnant singer who committed suicide by poison after her father murdered her lover and hung him in the dressing room. Reports of ghost sightings, an exorcism and a proclaimed "gateway to hell" have landed Bobby Mackey's on paranormal investigation shows like "Ghost Adventures" and "Buzzfeed Unsolved."
