I found a blue orb around the dinning area. I believe it’s haunted now.
We were walking into the restrooms. My girl friend and I, she was going in the ladies,I was walking into the men’s and she paused at the door before entering because we both heard what sounded like an automatic paper towel dispenser. She said oh, there’s someone in there. But there wasn’t. Nor does either restroom have a paper towel dispenser!
