I wouldn’t have believed my own eyes were it not corroborated by two others with me. This came after two other sets crashed to the ground. The first we didn’t see; only heard. Looked over and didn’t think much of it. A few minutes later, the second set crashed. We turned to see what the heck was causing this noise and then saw the third set lift and propel on its own. There was no rationale reason for this. The waitress came in a moment later and said, “oh I believe you. There’s always unexplained things going on here.”

After all research was done, we finally went into investigate. The history there is still very much alive and active as we we caught everything from shadows, to disembodied voices and several other strange phenomenons.
We went to this beautiful hotel under the permission of the owner. It was built in the 1920s and in the 80s there was a fire that killed and injured many. The most haunted places are the basement, and the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th floors. Along with the studio next store (connected to the building) In the basement videos and pictures of orbs have been caught. On the 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th floors voices over a SB-7 have been caught along with strong head aches, and the feeling of dizziness. In the studio we also say a white figure in the window. No doubt this place is haunted.
