Hotel Bentley

The Story

Hotel Bentley lore centers on its builder Joseph Bentley, said to remain on the third floor after dying in his suite. Other reported apparitions peer down from the mezzanine above the grand staircase. A child near the elevator and a man associated with a staircase fall also recur in the hotel’s ghost stories. Deaths and identities in the haunting account are folklore claims, not independently corroborated here.
