Real Estate and Business Ventures

Grant Wilson, along with his co-worker Jason Hawes, co-owned the Spalding Inn, located in Whitefield, New Hampshire. The Spalding Inn was formerly known as the Cherry Hill House and was built in the 1860s. The 7.78 acre historic property in the White Mountains debuted as part of the TAPS family in April 2009 on an episode of “Ghost Hunters”.

The Inn hosted Halloween and Christmas parties, along with paranormal events which featured the Ghost Hunters. The location has a main house and carriage house, with 36 “country style” rooms, and both a main dining room and the downstairs 2 Kings pub. Rates for the rooms went up to $170 per night. Wilson and Hawes decided to sell the Spalding Inn, listing it on Realtor.com for $795,000 because they simply did not have the time to run it.
