Many strange things can be said about this location of Embassy Suites. According to witnesses, lights turn on and off at will, doors come flying open by themselves, and during a period of construction when the electricity was disconnected, lights came on during the night. In addition, the golf course has spots where grass won’t grow and unexplained moaning or wailing has been heard by golfers on the course.
