The Story

HauntedPlaces.org contributors place the strongest activity upstairs: Maggie Broadcaster reportedly paces a corridor, while visitors also describe a child and a top-hatted man in a dark coat. Objects are said to be thrown in one room. The accounts give the former hotel several distinct apparitions rather than a single resident ghost.
