The Story

The Old Garner Hotel's stories make empty rooms sound occupied: coffee and tobacco odors, furniture apparently moving, and papers rustling without a visible worker. A paranormal team later reported recorded voices and unusual photographs. No spirit was securely identified. The former railway-era hotel provides the setting for this collection of experiences rather than one defining apparition.
