Haunted Hotel

The haunted history of this local hotel is somewhat vague. The story that initially intrigued G.H.O.S.T.S. to perform an investigation follows:  In the mid 1700’s there stood a farm house.  The residents of this house were somewhat “insane”.  Any trespassers onto this land were murdered then burned within the homes fireplace.  ( I want to stress this is only a story, this has not been confirmed!!)  Years later, when the hotel chain bought the property, the home was to be dismantled.  The problem was whenever they tried to tear down the fireplace, equipment would break down and people were injured.  Due to fear, they decided to leave the chimney where it stood, which it still does today.

The "haunted chimney" and original stable

We began the investigation by setting up a surveillance system around the chimney around 9 pm using inferred video cameras, 35 mm cameras, and EMF meters.  An amazing event took place during the initial EMF scan.  We came across an area of high EMF readings in a specific area in the shape of a large “L”.   G.H.O.S.T.S. believes this could have been the farm houses dimensions, due to some photographs that were in the hotel. Upon return one hour later, the readings were gone!  We also noted some moving cold spots near the chimney and within the hotel itself. 

On our investigation, we could not find any staff that knew anything about the history of the land.  Historical fact shows that three farm houses made of limestone did exist on the property in the late 1700’s.  A lot of stones from the old homes were used in the construction of the hotel. Could it be possible that the energy within the stones is making the hotel itself haunted?  We then obtained a story of haunted happenings from the staff  involving the 2nd  story hallway.  According to staff members, there is a young girl that “floats” down the hallway with a disembodied male voice chanting “Aggie”. Aggie's picture hangs within the hotels hallway. 

There was not much of photographic evidence of the location being haunted. Oddly,  many of our investigators rolls of film were very blurry and distorted, some of the rolls of film did not print at all. We were using Kodak Max 800 spd. and Fuji 800 spd.. We have never had this effect on investigations in the past. It is unclear what could have caused this phenomenon. 
 
 

This faint orb was captured near the bar area within the hotel. Look closely at the center, in front of the main post.

Another orb was caught on the bottom right corner of this window. This photo was also taken in the bar area.

On the inferred video, we did catch some orb activity near the chimney, and within the second story hallway where “Aggie” is suppose to haunt. Outside, near the chimney, our video cameras picked up a lot of Electric interference. G.H.O.S.T.S. believes that this should be classified as a “residual haunting”.  It will take more investigations of the property to determine what is causing this activity. 

At this time the investigation is somewhat inconclusive. 
 

For experimental purposes only we used a Ouija board. We normally DO NOT use this device on an investigation! Again it was for experimental purposes only! Below are the letters that came through: 

 F U S T C R B O A T F E W E I S T 8 G 1786 F I R E 9 F V E G E R E T R U F 7  G U S G H I L I          -NO- H Y F 

There are only two words in the English language “BOAT” and “FIRE”. The year 1786 was spelled out, and strangely, one of our investigators last names. What is strange about this is that her name is hard to spell, and none of the members could spell it!! Again this was for an experiment only, We take this information with a grain of salt and is not for research purposes!!
