This renovated, historic pub and grille, and former brewery and brothel, is believed to have many active spirits in the building according to paranormal investigators. Audio recordings of voices and sounds and video of orbs, light flashes, and anomalies have all been captured. Cowboys, a prostitute named Mary, several children, and previous owners are among those believed to be regulars while others pass through. Most recent investigative findings are consistent with other groups and psychics who have visited. The owner, along with employees, customers, and salesmen, have experienced moving objects, balls of light, shadows, voices, taps on the head, temperature changes, doors that open and shut, apparition of an old woman, and much more.
The pub has changed ownership many times due to the haunting by former owner Paul Malin. Since his death, reports of activity in the building have included slamming doors, objects moving inexplicably and even the apparition of the deceased former owner.
The ghost of a woman in white who passed away in the hotel has been seen on the ninth floor of the hotel. The ghost of a small dog is seen in the hallways of the hotel, as well as the ghost of former owner Clifford Stiles. The most famous ghost at the hotel is the apparition of Hank Williams, who has allegedly been seen in the room he stayed in prior to his untimely death. Guests have reported strange occurrences, such as doors opening and closing and furniture and baggage moving around.
The inn was originally two separate houses built in 1862, which were joined together in the 20th century to form the inn. The apparition of a lady in white has been seen pacing the balcony of Room #007, as well as chandeliers swinging when no one is around, furniture getting moved around and lamps being unplugged.
In the late 1890’s, three miners were brutally murdered at the old inn, and reports of hauntings arose soon after this incident. The three miners’ ghosts are violent, and loud noises, shouts and arguing voices are heard late at night when no one is around. The apparition of an old lady, believed to be Mrs Clawson, has been seen wandering around the house, leaving behind a calming presence.
The inn has a single ghost, a woman with dark hair and red lips with only a severed head visible who fades away when approached. Screams and crying have also been heard in the inn.
This 19th century inn previously served as the offices and home of the prominent Judge Blenman, who still haunts the building to this day. He still haunts the patio area and the Sydney Marie Suite at the front of the inn, which served as his law office.
Alonzo Megargee, the original owner of the inn, has been seen in a cowboy outfit in the bar and foyer area. Toilets flush by themselves, bottles shatter and glasses break when no one is around.
