CABINET OF CURIOSITIES 4
20 KEYS TO HAUNTED HOTEL ROOMS
BY TROY TAYLOR
A hotel room is supposed to be your "home away from home" when you travel - a place of security, comfort, and calm. But what if the hotel room that you check into already has an occupant? An unseen one that turns your evening of peace and quiet into a nightmare? Hotels are among the most haunted places in America. Every hotel room plays temporary host to hundreds of people every year and, in some cases, those visitors leave a little piece of themselves behind - as ghosts.
In this new collection from Troy Taylor's Cabinet of Curiosities, readers are handed a set of 20 keys that unlock doors in the most haunted hotels in the country. This is not just another travel guide or one that only skims the surface of a location's history - this is a behind-the-scenes look at Troy's favorite haunted hotels, with little-known history, secret stories, and even first-hand encounters with the resident ghosts!
Go inside both famous and forgotten places and come face-to-face with the customers of the past who have, of course, checked in and never checked out of America's most haunted hotels!
Discover the hidden and haunted histories of places like the Cecil Hotel, Chicago's Congress Hotel (the ONLY complete history ever written!), Menger Hotel, Eureka Spring's Crescent Hotel, the Bourbon Orleans, the Seelbach in Louisville, Hawthorne Hotel in Salem, Bullock Hotel, Monte Vista Hotel, Hotel Chelsea, the horrifying history behind the Revere Hotel in Boston, Arizona's Copper Queen, Hotel Del Coronado, the infamous Stanley Hotel - and many others!
