00:00:26
face at Elena where you like tuck your top lip over your b or your top teeth you like
00:00:34
tuck it into your gums kind of kind of and then you start talking Southern I don't know why happens because I think
00:00:42
I'm a southerner in a past life you you have Southern bell Vibes thank you so much of your soul that's super duper
00:00:48
kind yeah it's also just like when you know talking in a Southern accent is so buttery it's also fun like it it's the
00:00:56
easiest accent to slip into yes you know British is prettyy easy British is is easy but it never sounds authentic nope
00:01:05
never like never like we think it does but a British person would be like you shut your dirty American Mouth yeah and
00:01:11
we would say you're probably right say shut your F southern accent always sounds right like it just sounds you
00:01:18
can't mess it up it's buttery yeah you know I love it it depends on where in the South I don't know where mine is but
00:01:26
it feels buttery you know you sort of sounded like when Reese Witherspoon goes Southern in um Sweet Home Alabama that
00:01:33
crazy ass flick sweet do you ever watch a movie that was so beloved to you in your childhood and
00:01:40
then you're like you watch it now and you're like [ __ ] I'm like is everyone all right like oh my God you guys got

00:02:00
God uh Louisiana accent is so cool but it's one that I cannot do yeah they're it's cozy it is cozy if you're from
00:02:08
Louisiana I think you have a cozy Vibe because you know what it is like historical things are sort of not all of
00:02:14
them but some of them are kind of cozy they have a cozy Vibe most of the time some of the time I should when they go
00:02:19
way back yeah sort of you know yeah I was trying to transition us into what we're talking about speaking of
00:02:26
historical Vibes thank you see you picked up what I was stepping did uh today's a haunted hotels or spooky
00:02:33
hotels episode but I think what you saw in the title you were like wait wait wait what hold on what false advertising
00:02:42
the Oliver House murders I thought you said yep did that didn't hear that this is spooky hotels but spooky in the sense
00:02:50
that lots of murders lots of deaths and uh as a result lots of hauntings on your side does not have any
00:03:01
murders that I could find but it has deaths and Limbs and limbs Fant limb and real limbs Phantom limbs I like that and
00:03:11
real ones isn't that a shins song Yes wow deep cut I love The Shins The Shins are
00:03:19
great yes it's so good all right go go off Queen so I have two and they're in the same they're in Arizona better than
00:03:27
me I have two what's even weirder about this and I this happened in real time and Ash can tell you what really
00:03:32
happened yeah so I found this hotel the Copper Queen and it's in Bisby Arizona y
00:03:39
I was reading about it and I'm like wow what this one's a cool one um a few people had recommended it in our email
00:03:46
and I was like holy [ __ ] you guys rule absolutely I want to cover this and then
00:03:50
as I was doing that I came across the Oliver House Hotel in Arizona I like that sound of that name it's horrifying
00:03:58
to be honest it looks really cool though I want to go let's go and I was like oo
00:04:02
this one's interesting too it was just by happen stance like I was like oh yeah this one's cool too you know what I'll
00:04:08
do a twofer because they're very interesting and I can't pick and so I was looking up like other you know all
00:04:13
this stuff about both of them and I come across a Ghost Adventures episode with you know Zack the only and I was like oh
00:04:23
which one did he go to and I look one episode he went to the Copper Queen and the Oliver House what are the odds and I
00:04:30
was like that's weird I guess not cuz they're in the same state and I think they're not far apart but like still
00:04:35
weird I don't know [ __ ] spooky bro it's so [ __ ] spooky I said that she just wanted to do the Copper Queen
00:04:42
because she is a Copper Queen and I I loved it I really did thought it was funny well let me tell you about the
00:04:49
Copper Queen Another Copper Queen yeah the other one so not the copper let me not tell you about myself but about this
00:04:55
other Copper Queen other Copper Queen uh it was built in 189 in Bisby Arizona and this was after the Phelps
00:05:03
Dodge mining company found that they needed you know some luxurious accommodations to put up prospective
00:05:10
invested investors I almost said investigators those two those two investors into the mine and you know the
00:05:16
corporate Executives they wanted something to like schmoo you know of course only the best for the best
00:05:21
exactly so it was it ended up being finished in 1902 and originally had 73 rooms and finally you know originally
00:05:29
there was only one bathroom per floor oh no yeah honey that's not the best for the best yeah it's on Howell Street
00:05:37
currently and it's apparently the oldest continuously operating hotel in Arizona
00:05:41
wow it's like hundreds of years old that's cool so or 100 over hundred years old yeah um but this whole like this
00:05:48
whole layout changed because eventually the hotel wasn't just for investors and Fancy Pants Executives anymore but
00:05:54
instead it became like a hot and happen in place for anyone coming through to stay in Bisby it was like cool place
00:06:00
yeah so once it started to get to be the place to stay for those outside of just
00:06:04
Fancy Pants investors in the mining company they renovated and put a bathroom in each Suite like a normal
00:06:10
hotel that was [ __ ] smart yeah and this made the 73 rooms turn into 48 cuz obviously they the room to kind of can
00:06:16
join yep uh upgrade to me I agree I'll take it uh also well-known stars and like kind of iconic people have stayed
00:06:25
at this hotel Julia Roberts has stayed there I love her there you go she's my one of my she might be my favorite
00:06:31
actress W I didn't know that about you yeah Oh Aaron Brockovich pretty women pretty woman Runaway Bride the list goes
00:06:40
on the list goes on uh [ __ ] uh drink the juice Shelby yep what is that what oh my God I'm drawing
00:06:48
a blank I don't know no you do you've never seen it I'm sure Dolly Parton jul Roberts [ __ ] magnol magnol oh my God
00:06:58
why was I about to say Green Tomatoes I just like sares maybe it's the same Vibes but I'm like why was I saying that
00:07:04
Fried Green Tomatoes is such a good movie but anyway I do love Julia Roberts yep there you go well she's stayed there
00:07:10
hell yeah Brando has stayed there cool Harry Houdini so pretty cool place damn if you ask me um so that sounds awesome
00:07:20
huh let's talk about what's happened there it does but your face tells me it's not so apparently just to give you
00:07:25
a little idea it's pretty haunted in there uh the furniture moves a lot I like how you said that pretty haunted in
00:07:31
there pretty haunted in there I think they should just hire you to stand outside just go hey pretty haunted in
00:07:38
there doing the thumb the thumb in there like that place reeks of Haunting I've lots of Haunting going on the furniture
00:07:48
moves a lot in particular okay um and with seemingly no explanation like staff has reported that they'll leave a room
00:07:55
in either like the lobby area or one of the rooms or in the bar area and they'll
00:08:00
come back within a minute or two and all the furniture will be completely different like too quick for it to be
00:08:07
somebody [ __ ] with them I kind of love that yeah they well somebody alive [ __ ] with them I should say
00:08:12
somebody's [ __ ] with them so that's interesting that's one of the things a lot of people hear things they hear
00:08:17
footsteps they hear voices a lot of people feel like they get touched tugged at a lot so we're going to talk about a
00:08:24
couple of these specific ghosts because they have specific ghosts at this place and they have actually named rooms after
00:08:31
some of these ghosts that's [ __ ] cool so first one is Julia LOL she was a young woman in her 30s who worked as a
00:08:39
sex worker in the early 1900s and she used the hotel to entertain her clientele specifically she used a room
00:08:46
on the third floor and that room is now named the Julia L room that's iconic like officially it has a plaque made by
00:08:53
the hotel as it should now unfortunately for Julia The Story Goes that she fell in love with a married client
00:09:00
oh no yeah it's not great so she decided to tell him she was being a brave [ __ ]
00:09:05
and she was like I'm going to tell this man you know he's coming to see me that's the thing maybe shoot your shot
00:09:10
Juliet yeah exactly and he didn't return the feelings unfortunately and he apparently wasn't very nice about
00:09:16
telling her that he didn't return the feelings what a douche so she was very distraught and this is really sad but
00:09:21
she ended up taking her own life by hanging and she either did it in or just outside of her room that's so sad now
00:09:28
apparently Julia now in the afterlife is still very active you'll smell perfume around her spirit she has a very nice
00:09:36
perfume love that uh she can be seen on the second and third floors and man she is busy she can be seen sometimes
00:09:44
dancing at the bottom of staircases TW which I love and she'll actively flirt with male guests she finds attractive oh
00:09:52
honey she's having a good time in the afterlife she'll try to seduce them by whispering in their ears or stroking
00:09:58
their legs or feet hey there hey there big guy and she can also be seen sometimes people will wake
00:10:05
up this is my favorite what she she people will wake up and see her seductively dancing at the end of their
00:10:11
bed stop it what a sassy Queen just throw an at at the end of the bed that's Julia I love it that's Julia
00:10:21
I feel like she doesn't throw ass I feel like she kind of like like like that you know you know
00:10:28
she's definitely Slinky as hell she's very demor very mind very mindful very cutesy cuty very Slinky
00:10:36
Slinky but we love a Julia she's a sassy Queen she's apparently not at all malicious in any way she's not scary in
00:10:44
any way she's a welcome presence well [ __ ] the guy that did her wrong [ __ ] that guy uh the next ghost we have is
00:10:51
Billy Billy Billy is a child ghost oh yeah his story's a little sad but he seems like he's like living it up for
00:10:57
the most part in the afterlife really he was an 8-year-old and he was an 8-year-old son of someone who worked at
00:11:03
the hotel and he was like beloved everyone loved him [Music] there he played in the hotel a lot well
00:11:23
who I don't know exactly who in his life worked there yeah but he was there a lot
00:11:27
so he played a lot when day he was going swimming in the San Pedro River nearby and the current overtook him and he
00:11:34
drowned oh God and it absolutely devastated everyone at the hotel yeah but Billy didn't leave he said not today
00:11:42
he said I love playing here not now not never he can be seen all around the hotel most often by children because in
00:11:50
fact adults can't see him at all wow only children can see him that's cool what a [ __ ] superpower that is but he
00:11:58
but adults can hear him or they can feel him when he touches them that's spooky he likes to tug on clothing like a
00:12:05
little kid or tap people from like a child's height like gets their attention yeah like a tap tap like um one of the
00:12:12
like a bartender there was saying that like while she was behind the bar she her clothing was tugged so hard that she
00:12:18
assumed a little kid was behind her wow and when she turned around he wasn't there but according to phoenic ghosts
00:12:24
Billy likes to befriend children and there have been many reports of guests saying that their will try to introduce
00:12:30
them to their new friend Billy oh but no one's there that's [ __ ] horrifying and adorable just going to say I would
00:12:37
[ __ ] my pants and also think that is the cutest thing ever I'd say I'm so excited
00:12:41
for your new friend but he's got to go soon that's so lovely you should bring him to the light you should bring him to
00:12:48
the light tell him if he sees it go towards it go towards it baby but Billy is known to play around the hotel lobby
00:12:55
he also likes to move furniture in the rooms and other things so maybe it's him he's also likes to move guests
00:13:01
belongings around oh he's a little jok he's a very much a jokester he likes to take stuff to animals and put them in
00:13:08
other locations that's cute he's probably just playing with them yeah he is he also likes to play with people's
00:13:12
shoes so he will misplace people's shoes a lot many guests will come down to the
00:13:17
front desk and say I don't know where my shoes went that's so funny it's Billy like putting them in random spots uh
00:13:22
objects will also float sometimes like at child level where it looks like a child is holding them see we've
00:13:29
experienced like some really cool [ __ ] I would say like ever since we've been paranormal investigating with our
00:13:35
brothers girls ghost cult and coven yes uh Sabrina and Karan what's up but we've
00:13:40
never seen an object floating but you know what I'm trying to see that it's going to happen oh absolutely I can't
00:13:47
wait I Feel It In My Bones I can't wait and often people hear a little boy's giggle oh or a little boy's voice saying
00:13:55
things like they can hear clearly a little boy's voice and this is the saddest part though if you are
00:14:02
especially there's a room that's called Billy's room oh and if you're in Billy's
00:14:05
room if you run a shower or a bath people say you will sometimes hear him crying or whimpering because he's like
00:14:12
traumatized by the running water that just made me so sad and yes oh and they actually did it on Ghost Adventures
00:14:20
which I know I'm like putting I'm not putting stock in like all these shows no but I'm just saying like but that's a
00:14:25
great [ __ ] interesting it's a fun these are fun shows I also of um Ghost Hunters Ghost Hunters International or
00:14:34
Ghost Hunters regular on yeah like Taps right Taps that's the one um CU they're they're so fun this time of year too oh
00:14:40
they're so fun this time of year but they did the water thing and they did capture like a strange EVP that sounded
00:14:45
like a child but you people should like tell him before they're going to run a bath I know just be like nothing bad's
00:14:51
going to happen H out of the bathroom yeah it's not going to happen don't worry um and the last one that people
00:14:56
see a lot is a man in a top hat oh that's I don't I don't love that well the man is not named he doesn't have a
00:15:03
name they don't know where he comes from but he appears in a top hat and a black
00:15:07
cape which makes me think of Jack the Ripper retweet but his presence is not as ominous as Jack the Ripper apparently
00:15:14
that's good he's by all accounts pretty chill okay uh he's always seen smoking a
00:15:20
cigar [ __ ] living and you can smell a cigar when he's around sometimes I like the smell of cigar and sometimes I don't
00:15:28
me too so it it depends on the day yeah toss up he's often seen on the fourth floor near
00:15:33
room 409 um he feels like he kind of rules a little bit I don't know he's fancy he
00:15:39
just smoking a cigar yeah he's got like a sexy mysterious Vibe and he just seems
00:15:44
like he's hanging yeah and people say he hangs a lot in like dark areas so they get freaked out by him but I was like I
00:15:50
don't know maybe he just doesn't want to be perceived you know perhaps like it's
00:15:54
maybe he's just like I I'm in here cuz I don't want you to see me it is I just want to smoke my cigar piece it's giving
00:16:00
a little bit like sleep paralysis demon absolutely like the hatman yes yeah but if my sleep paralysis demon was smoking
00:16:09
a cigar you might have a better relationship cuz I would think that's hilarious see it it change the way I saw
00:16:16
it it depends on the situation you know what I mean I feel like it would make the situation funnier though to me
00:16:22
possibly you know like right now sleep paralysis is a horrifying thing for me yeah because it's there's nothing cookie
00:16:29
or Camp about it in any way but like if he's smoking a cigar just twitched did yes you said paralysis is a lot for me
00:16:38
Twitch twitch I'm very tired I didn't sleep all last night neither of us did so badad yeah but I think it would be
00:16:45
much funnier if he was just like had a cigar and he was just like puffing a cigar in my room I'd be like you just
00:16:52
chilling hello what are you doing let me know if that happens I will cuz maybe it
00:16:56
will now have you had sleep paralysis in a while I have recently I just knocked on wood to make
00:17:02
sure I don't invite that into my life girl that's from Target that's not knock your walls that's not that's from Target
00:17:09
too no she knock the walls where's the wood where's the wood someone knock on wood uh if you're listening will you
00:17:16
knock on wood maybe the bookshelf no may I tried to but she told me no that's that's some kind of I don't know all
00:17:24
right well my next one let's hope we'll all just hope together but my next one so that was the copper Queen okay that
00:17:29
was you and the Copper Queen me and the Copper Queen the next one is the Oliver house which this is where it all it gets
00:17:36
crazy really goes down it pops off like we're going down but now we're going down uhoh uh so this is another mining
00:17:42
Hotel check that out yeah this one was built in 1908 by Edith Oliver and Henry Oliver who was an oil tycoon and his
00:17:50
wife okay uh they also wanted a a place that they could house big investors and Big Wigs who doesn't a place of style a
00:17:58
place of class you know Swag if you will exactly and all was well and fine and eventually it even tracked the miners
00:18:05
who would stay there for a long period of time basically becoming borders so it became like a boarding house for the
00:18:10
miners eventually um it's got a spooky ass exterior really oh I'm going to look it up which I think it knows that like
00:18:19
the Oliver House knows that there's this like concrete walkway Bridge type thing
00:18:25
that leads to it and it's like all overgrown like bushes and stuff that lead you into it it's like a real
00:18:32
experience but I think the um the is it the Copper Queen or is it this one I think it's the Oliver house that has a
00:18:39
little ghost on its it might be the Copper Queen one of them has a little ghost on its sign so it kind of It kind
00:18:45
of like leans into the fact that it's very haunted I don't see one on the Oliver House the Oliver house looks like
00:18:50
you could literally pluck it out of there and put it into Nola yeah it really does the Copper Queen the Copper
00:18:56
Queen might be the one that has little ghosties on it sign which is very cute I don't see it there so let's get
00:19:04
into the Oliver House in 1920 Nathaniel Nat Anderson was one of The Lodgers staying at the Oliver house
00:19:14
he was a minor uh he was working in the local mine obviously that's what miners do miners just study mining you know he
00:19:20
was known to be a pretty chill fellow but his personal life was a little bit uh messy oh he borrowed a lot of money
00:19:28
oh money couldn't repay and he also had a habit of like sleeping with other people's wives oh you're going to piss a
00:19:34
lot of people off with those with those character those Hobbies I was I was in habits and hobbies and I
00:19:42
put habbies gr uh gr so he was having a very torid affair with a woman during this time okay and oops it happened to
00:19:52
be the wife of a man he owed a lot of money to so he combined his Hobbies here what are you doing which is a bad
00:19:59
idea Nate a bad idea because this man found out where Nate was staying and he barged into the room at the hotel shot
00:20:07
Nate between the eyes and then again in the back twice [ __ ] yes he was found at
00:20:13
the top of the stairs near room 13 ooh spooky yeah he got now this guy who shot him got away with it because he covered
00:20:21
it up by staging a robbery in another room and then running the [ __ ] out of there still hasn't been caught to this
00:20:27
day whoa and this was in the 20s yeah that's crazy in the 20s uh yeah so that's a little scary and we'll talk
00:20:35
about a little bit more about you know the some of the ghosts that have come out of these things yeah like um guess
00:20:41
who will stay in room 13 we'll hear footsteps sometimes they'll see Nate like full body Apparition Nate I don't
00:20:49
want to see that and they always feel like they're being watched in that room and the hotel there's actual like copies
00:20:57
of Nate's death certificate so this is like a real thing on the death certificate it says cause of death
00:21:04
pistol shot to the forehead [ __ ] like it says it right there there's articles about the event I found one from the
00:21:11
tombstone Epitaph and part of it says an inquest yesterday morning shed little or
00:21:17
no light on the murder the coroner's jury gave a verdict of death from gunshot wounds at the hands of an
00:21:22
unknown person following the shooting both Mrs Richard Davis the land lady this is of the Oliver House
00:21:29
and a rumor saw a man leaving the place they did not see him clearly enough to describe him the theft of money and a
00:21:36
watch from K Ross's room a short time prior to the shooting remains a puzzling feature of the crime the weight of
00:21:42
evidence against the theory that the man who entered Ross's room is the same man
00:21:46
that shot Anderson is almost overwhelming on the other hand everything points to the crime as being
00:21:51
an act of a man who had some personal score to settle with Anderson sounds like it a score of violent hatred before
00:21:57
firing shirt the third shot into the prostate man's back that means he was like down on the ground okay his as
00:22:04
salent cursed him with a vile epithet what which like damn and it says there's a wooden foot Bridge across the
00:22:12
canyon leading to the front of the of the house a nearby neighbor said that before the shooting a scuffle was heard
00:22:17
on the bridge and a woman screamed the police think that the robbery of K Ross's room might have been a
00:22:23
coincidence or might have been done with the object of throwing them off the trail to make it seem as if it was the
00:22:28
Act of common thiefs trying to escape so they were on to this [ __ ] they were a
00:22:32
little bit on to this [ __ ] but they could never find them [Music] damn which is crazy now according to
00:22:54
like a few websites there's a local DJ that took a bet for $100 it was like a whole thing it was like on a radio show
00:23:02
or something like a radio DJ okay and he said he'd for 100 bucks he'd go stay in
00:23:06
the Nate Anderson room I would need more money than that well and he was the way
00:23:10
reason was he was like I don't believe in ghosts I think this is [ __ ] I'm going to prove it all to you that's
00:23:15
always the beginning of a wild experience he said when he went into the room he saw Nate's ghost standing in
00:23:21
that room staring right the [ __ ] at him immediately he immediately went back to
00:23:25
the front desk handed them back his key and said I don't want $100 he literally gave it back he said
00:23:33
that is quite all right folks I'm a Believer he's like you know what you got it like no not doing that uh so there's
00:23:42
so there was that that murder and that is confirmed in 1932 there was a literal mass murder at
00:23:50
the Oliver house where 12 people were killed holy [ __ ] so a local police deputy found out his wife was having an
00:23:58
affair Oh see it's always Affairs there's a lot of Affairs in the Oliver house like it's wild maybe it's like
00:24:04
yeah something in the air I don't know but he tracked her and her Paramore to the Oliver house where he found them in
00:24:10
what was referred to as the Blue Room oh um I was like sounds sassy sounds the blue R sounds kind of nice yeah he shot
00:24:18
them both in the head in bed and then systematically walked through the hotel killing 10 more people in the process
00:24:24
why did he kill a bunch of I mean why do you kill anybody very angry damn only ended when he turned the gun on himself
00:24:30
oh wow yeah so so I guess it was 13 people um but guests who stay in the Blue Room are treated to a really
00:24:39
[ __ ] heavy Vibe they say like right away it feels dark it feels Sinister it feels ominous in there most of them say
00:24:48
um also people hear cries for help and screams a lot of people hear no being screamed oh staff also find the
00:24:55
furniture moved almost every time they clean that room uh and which is just but I think
00:25:02
Furniture yeah and I think it's the vibe like the vibe really [ __ ] people up in
00:25:08
that room um but in 1986 this um the Oliver house was bought by Dennis shran who turned it into a bed and breakfast
00:25:17
and it's now an adults only hotel and referred to as your haunt away from home let's [ __ ] go so it is this one that
00:25:25
has like a little ghost on one of the signs not maybe it's not these sign but it's like one of the signs has like a
00:25:30
little ghosty on it and it's cute I want to go to that and even now there is a guest book for guests to share their
00:25:36
stays and like what they experience I always love that like the one at the Lizzy bord house Li bordon house that
00:25:41
was so scary that one is [ __ ] terrifying that's when we got all kinds of activity happening um and it is full
00:25:48
of ghost experiences and there specifically is mentioned that there's a portal in one of the rims like several
00:25:54
people said that um they say it's on the bed what and people feel like their limbs fall asleep and they're like
00:26:01
touched they're pulled they smell things they hear things um and actually in that
00:26:07
same like Ghost Adventures episode they caught a scream on on EVP that was actually really scary are you serious
00:26:13
and yeah when they asked who whoever it was why they were screaming the EVP answered I'm angry and it was like a
00:26:20
very scary voice fair enough so I mean why not you know like why are you screaming I'm angry scream out okay sir
00:26:29
thank you bye that's all we're going to pack up now but that is the Copper Queen
00:26:34
in the Oliver House wow those are freaking cuckoo they were very interesting ones I could have read about
00:26:41
those all day um to be honest I could have listened to them all day because what the [ __ ] cuz what the [ __ ] scary
00:26:48
well I'm taking you to Savannah because you know how haunted Savannah is and we're going to talk about the Marshall
00:26:55
House Hotel oo the Marshall hotel which was built all the way back in 1851 oh hell yeah is one of Savannah's
00:27:04
oldest hotels and is currently the oldest operating hotel that Savannah has wow it was named after Molly Magdalene
00:27:11
lever Marshall what a name I know four names so you know she's legit she came from a really prominent family in
00:27:19
Savannah and she inherited a lot of Moola Moola when her parents passed away get a girl but luckily it seems like
00:27:25
they raised her right because she was known to be a fil of Phil I can never say this word philanthropic yes she was
00:27:30
known to be a philanthropist in the area she felt like the city just like in your
00:27:35
story needed some kind of accommodations for visitors somewhere nice to stay and
00:27:40
that's where she came up with the idea for a beautiful hotel in the shopping district that could do just that smart
00:27:45
she said go shopping stay here now she had in inherited some land from her father and felt like it would be the
00:27:51
perfect spot to build a hotel on let's go girl sitting on current day East Bron Street I think that's how you say that
00:27:57
the hotel opened its doors in 1851 and many architectural historians believe that it's actually the finest structure
00:28:04
she ever built because she also built the Mary Marshall row on uh East ogal Thorp Avenue of course yes about four or
00:28:14
five four or five years after the Marshall house and then she also built the Mary Marshall houses which were
00:28:19
built in 1859 damn yes lots of Mary Marshall properties in the area she really went
00:28:24
for it she did now even though the name would make you think that the Marshal House Hotel had you know maybe been an
00:28:30
actual home at one point it it never was but it did serve as a boarding house and
00:28:35
a hospital during the Civil War oh damn and as a hospital during two yellow fever epidemics so many hotels were
00:28:42
civil war hospitals so many just like damn especially in the South like obviously uh it seems like a lot of the
00:28:50
hauntings obviously come from the time when the hotel was used to hospitalize soldiers oh yeah I think at first it was
00:28:56
actually just for Union Soldiers and then it was like any Soldier cuz people were getting so injured but one of the
00:29:03
main hauntings and this is [ __ ] terrifying one of the main hauntings people report is running into a man in
00:29:09
the lobby who is holding his own severed arm and begging for help or Like a Surgeon to sew it back
00:29:16
on what do you do run in that situation but then so far away you're like this poor guy I know like he's just he just
00:29:26
wants to be fixed I didn't read anybody who had like actually found a doctor for
00:29:31
him do you just grab your cell phone and be like 91 911 there's a man with no arm
00:29:39
he's translucent uh can you help him a little Misty that's the thing like fgy Little
00:29:45
Misty how do you help them I feel bad I do too but guests have also reported waking up in the middle of the night
00:29:51
with their arm outstretched like from their bedside and having the Sensation that somebody's touching like their
00:29:57
lower arm are or their wrist like a nurse working on them or checking their pulse I do not consent there have also
00:30:03
been reports of people feeling like somebody's touching their forehead like for a fever when like when they're
00:30:08
laying in bed oh no thank you yeah now one of the perks of the hotel is that there are of course ghost tours and
00:30:15
there's also a museum with like a ton of artifacts from the time um so you can join the ghost tours and uh the tour
00:30:22
includes seeing the old operating room from when it was a hospital that's cool and people who have joined these tours
00:30:28
report seeing doctors working on patients and even shut up people who don't even go on the tour have said that
00:30:34
they've seen doctors like rushing through the hallway oh my God I would love that and asked like the front desk
00:30:40
or somebody like oh is something going on and they're like oh no like that's the ghost yeah oh that's just a ghost
00:30:46
yeah sorry about that and people have also reported seeing other soldiers walking around with missing
00:30:52
limbs yeah and there's also reports of another man walking around asking people if they've seen his arm a mhm another
00:31:02
man without an arm like I'm sorry everybody it's very sad yeah now this is [ __ ] crazy in the late I think it was
00:31:10
there the reports vary between like 1996 and 1999 I saw both so I said in the late
00:31:16
1990s there was a major renovation and the workers were redoing some of the floors in the hotel and on the ground
00:31:23
floor where the surgery room used to be they found skeletal remains when they dug the floors up of course they did and
00:31:30
all the remains were believed to be amputated limbs what isn't that [ __ ] crazy so
00:31:36
they were just burying disembodied limbs I guess so oh and now all these people are just
00:31:42
walking around looking for him that's the thing and like then they found them but I don't know what they ended up
00:31:47
doing with them because still people are looking for their limbs yeah to this day
00:31:52
guests in rooms uh 414 314 and 214 which are said to be among the most haunted rooms they say that they'll get a whiff
00:32:00
of foul odors ooh One account I found on ghost City Tour said when they were first renovating the hotel and opening
00:32:07
it in 1999 three rooms had foul smells and bad vibes so overpowering that the staff and workers could not stay in in
00:32:15
them long enough to get anything done rooms 214 314 and 414 414 being the worst and I stink I think it's still
00:32:23
very active today what's funny is you just said I stink it first kind of worked it kind of worked and to
00:32:30
elaborate on that this person said they tried every deodorizer they could get a hold of and nothing worked finally they
00:32:36
had a prayer SL blessing in those rooms and the smell and Vibes relented only with 414 still having the persisting
00:32:42
odor and Vibes staff is said to play gospel music in that room when they're cleaning it because that's the only
00:32:48
thing that keeps the Vibes and odor at shut up but also imagine how [ __ ] like if you like gospel music I'm not
00:32:55
making fun of it or anything it just personally creeps me out I feel like that would just add to the to the scary
00:33:01
Vibes well that's the thing when it's like when scary things are a foot and you hear gospel music it just makes it
00:33:08
scary cuz it's such a like a justos of things yes you know like it's two very dichotomous feelings of like like gospel
00:33:17
music is supposed to uplift people and make them feel safe and then this room is [ __ ] terrifying and a ghost might
00:33:23
pop out music is playing and it's like oh my Lord literally oh my oh my Lord that's it's like when in a horror movie
00:33:31
they play like a kids song or something like that I hate that like I don't I've probably said it on the podcast before
00:33:36
but I [ __ ] hate the sound of kids singing it's one of my biggest [Music] hatreds but even after the ren
00:33:58
there are a lot of the original structures still in the hotel to this day it still has it's original wood
00:34:05
floors original staircases fireplaces brick walls so The Vibes pretty much all of the doors are
00:34:13
the original doors damn and even some artwork from way back in the day one of the original paintings um is a portrait
00:34:21
of Mary Marshall herself in the lobby and it was painted around 1830 and there's a story of a guest and his
00:34:28
younger daughter checking out and the L little girl saw the painting and grabbed
00:34:32
her dad and was like oh I saw that lady in the hallway like while we were staying here shut up and he was like
00:34:39
cool glad we're checking out freaky that's so [ __ ] up imagine your kid just being like Oh I saw that
00:34:47
lady and you're like saw that lady from the 1830s in the hall oh [ __ ] but other
00:34:52
guests have reported seeing her too um and other spooky happenings include door knobs jiggling in the middle of the
00:34:58
night toilets overflowing I would [ __ ] hate that cuz I would assume it's like a a live person trying to come
00:35:04
into my room also I'd be screwed because whenever I stay at a hotel I put a um alarm in front of the door like
00:35:11
literally has yeah constantly but uh toilets overflow for no reason people hear disembodied voices especially
00:35:19
children's voices and they hear like children's activities specifically on the fourth floor guests who are staying
00:35:27
there have heard kids running up and down the Halls at all hours of the night they hear like rubber rubber balls
00:35:33
bouncing or they're uh they'll hear like marbles like kids playing with marbles and they'll call down to the front desk
00:35:39
to be like hey like there's a loud family and there's like like the front desk worker will be like there's no kids
00:35:45
on the floor tonight there's a loud family and they're like there's not in the hway there's not even a quiet family
00:35:51
there's no family there's actually no family staying on the floor or people will stick their heads out into the hall
00:35:56
and see nothing when they like just heard something out there some guests also have woken up in the morning with
00:36:03
small bite marks on their arms no so like watch out cuz the kids in this hotel happen to be Wy they're biting you
00:36:10
one little girl she was staying there with her mom on the third floor and I guess she was like taking a bath and she
00:36:16
started screaming and ran out of the bathroom and when her mom asked what was wrong she showed her her arm and there
00:36:22
was a bite mark on it like a little bite mark no I want to like throw hands at this
00:36:28
don't keep biting my kidsight yeah you bite food you don't bite people somebody better teach you that that's the thing
00:36:35
yeah you [ __ ] with a kid like ghost kid or not that's messed up that's messed up
00:36:41
but when the mom was like what happened she said that the little boy in the bathroom had done that to her no so the
00:36:46
mom goes into the bathroom and takes a peek around and she about to [ __ ] [ __ ]
00:36:50
up if there's a little boy biting her K she was like in a in a y iata kind of why I but there was no one tub OT
00:36:58
there's no one to OT now lights also flicker or dim and explicitly uh hello hello in explicably faucets turn off and
00:37:07
on on their own um and then apparently author uh Joel Chandler Harris had a room there that he stayed in quite uh
00:37:16
quite often and guess who stay in that room can hear a typewriter still clicking stop which I thought that was
00:37:22
pretty cool also Electronics will turn on and off by themselves like your phone will turn off and then on again and
00:37:29
guess what Elena what one of our very own listeners stayed at the Marshall House Hotel and wrote In A Tale to share
00:37:38
about her and her husband's scary ass experience tell me all right so this is um let me make sure I can say your name
00:37:46
I think I can it's misty misty so hello beautiful souls I wanted to share my husbands and myself recent trip to
00:37:53
Savannah Georgia I really enjoy watching ghost shows really anything paranormal my husband always thought they were
00:37:58
ridiculous which makes this even better we decided to stay in the Marshall house
00:38:02
which was built in 1851 it was used as a hospital during the yellow fever epidemic and in the mid 1800s as a Union
00:38:09
Hospital during the Civil War they still have many artifacts and things still on
00:38:12
display throughout the hotel but on to the story of course we were put on the fourth floor which is reported to have
00:38:18
the most activity we were put in room 409 we go to our room and my husband turns on the light that's sitting on the
00:38:24
desk and the light starts to flicker slightly before it starts to cut off off and on which could be explained by
00:38:29
faulty wiring I guess sure that was the first day nothing more happened that day
00:38:34
the next morning he went out to get my hairbrush for me out of the car on his way back in he got into the elevator
00:38:39
pushed the button to the flo fourth floor but when the doors opened he was on the basement level and nobody was
00:38:45
waiting for the elevator oh damn so the door closes and takes him to the fourth floor which we joked about the day
00:38:51
before that we would like to go down and see down to the basement and see if it was that creepy the whole time he has
00:38:57
the hairbrush deep in his coat pocket when he gets back to the room I asked for the hairbrush it's gone even though
00:39:03
he had just checked to make sure it was there when he was walking into the door after searching the room he went back
00:39:08
out to the uh back out to the hall and there was the hairbrush in the middle of the hallway what the [ __ ] as we were
00:39:14
preparing to leave the room he couldn't find his key card we looked through bags
00:39:18
pulled the sheets off the bed double checked his pockets the key card was nowhere to be found we go to breakfast
00:39:23
and come back to look again he starts moving everything around he lifts the silver tray that has the heavy silver
00:39:28
ice bucket on it and his key card is sitting in the center under the silver tray what like why would that happen
00:39:35
yeah this next one is a little strange but he is very particular about his socks and things in his shoes he will
00:39:41
not even wear two different kinds of socks we had walked about two blocks to River Street and had been going in the
00:39:46
shops etc for about 2 hours when we decided to sh to stop for a coffee as we were walking out he said he needed to
00:39:53
stop because something was in a shoe when he took his shoe off he had a nickel in it considering we pay for
00:39:58
everything with our debit/credit card and he's particular about if his shoes and he's particular about his shoes that
00:40:04
was very strange I thought it was great these strange things happening to him since he's so skeptical about all these
00:40:09
type of things apparently I should have kept my opinion to myself that night after dinner I went to get the ice out
00:40:16
of the machine down the hall from the room as I was walking back I felt like I was being followed and really wanted to
00:40:21
rush back to the room the rest of the night I was nervous and decided to sleep with the TV on later I was woke looking
00:40:27
up to what sounded like my husband getting uh ice from the bucket into a cup I thought it was him until I heard
00:40:34
him snoring next to me oh no me being the brave person I am I closed my eyes as tight as I could to pretend that I
00:40:40
was not even there then I noticed that the TV had also been turned off as well and I kept getting really bad cold
00:40:46
chills the room was quite warm so that didn't make sense but thank goodness we were leaving the next morning of course
00:40:52
I asked the husband if he cut the TV off during the night and he said no he hadn't it was all fun in games when
00:40:57
things were happening to him but my tune changed when it was my turn maybe the talking I heard in the hall and the door
00:41:03
slamming was not actually other people staying there of course I Googled room 409 when I got home and found a video of
00:41:10
something similar to the light thing that happened to somebody else staying in that room we've been back home a week
00:41:15
with nothing weird ever taking place no strange Vibes at our house we live on S Acres away from the road at 3:30 this
00:41:22
morning our two Chihuahua start barking waking both of us up I heard someone say
00:41:26
hush sass the dog's name is Sassy but we call her SASS and she stopped barking immediately this is the first time this
00:41:33
has happened and everybody else was in bed as I was driving up the driveway to take my son and nephew to school the
00:41:39
next morning my nephew screamed what is that after slamming on the brakes I asked what he saw and he said nothing I
00:41:45
asked again and he said he saw a woman in a white gown with long black hair standing next to the creek by the trees
00:41:52
no I told him it was probably just a tree you know because most trees look like the creepy girl from The Ring yeah
00:41:59
the tree with hair you know yeah you know my husband has also mentioned something coming home with us since he
00:42:05
keeps getting random cold chills again being the brave person I am I'm hoping like crazy something didn't decide to
00:42:11
have a vacation in our home like we did theirs sorry if this is long and all over the place maybe if I have time
00:42:17
again I can share the story about my oldest son uh son's imaginary great uncle boo boo that my brother ended up
