I had my son and nephew stand on front of room 401 to take some pictures. My wife was on the other side near the stairs. As I was about to take a picture, their heads were moving back and fourth. I asked what they were doing? My wife put her finger to her mouth as to be quiet and her head was also moving . Just then I heard some kids giggling and running from 401 to the stairs and back. We couldn't believe it. We checked the 3rd floor for any signs of kids or people. " nothing". I can't wait to go back !! June 4, 2009,

As for the door rattling just and FYI the draft coming from teh seals around teh windows causes it that one I was able to debunk> Recently stayed at Stanley room 217 the closet is creepy but the bathroom door opened twice. 413 was really active several orbs on camera but I felt like someone touched my back twice and after hearing a thumping sound and peeking from the bathroom I swear I saw my boot was tipped on its heel and feel back in the standing position…I wasn’t sure if these things were just my mind playing tricks on me and explained them away but while laying in bed I heard noises in the closet and the door handle turned back and forth this was undeniable and right in front of my face I couldn’t explain it., and it happened a few times in a row.

If you want the real experience, you should stay there in the winter when the hotel is relatively unoccupied on the 4th floor like I did (I stayed there for 3 days in January-and those were the LONGEST 3 days). If I hadn't been there for a work event, I would have left. The events I experienced were: ghost came into my room and actually SAT on me when I was laying down (felt like heavy, cold air, but I couldn't move), there were footsteps and laughter starting at about 3 am until dawn, running up and down the hallway. Children mostly, but there was also an "adult." There were heavy boots stomping up and down, first in the hallway, then in my room, so loud it rattled the glasses on the table. The second night the ghost sat on my bed and I told it to "get out" and it did. I had my eyes squeezed shut, but you could feel the bed sink down and the cold, heavy air again. At least I didn't get pinned the second night. The other "odd" thing is when you are up on the 4th floor, you feel a sense of vertigo, or "claustrophobia." The Stanley Hotel is definitely haunted.

The fourth floor has had the most encounters, it used to be the "workers quarters" but is no longer , and they say its pretty haunted. Also the billarad room, and Lobby is where they say Mr.Stanleys ghost has been spotted most. Mrs.Stanley has been said to haunt the hotel as well, and play piano in the music room.

Um. Considering the hotel was built in the 1900's, I doubt your story is true, simply because you claimed that the woman you caught was in 1800's dress. In response to Jonathan… Um.

We had got to the fourth floor we were on the tour and me and my dad's were against room 413. The tour guide was still talking something started rattling the door then all the sudden i heard foot steps right beside me and there was no body there. Then right after that the door started to rattle again. Then i heard foot steps right beside me and there was no body there. Then the tour guide was done and we started walk off me and my dad stayed in the back the whole time taking pitures so when we started walking off we heard the door rattling again and then all the sudden it stoped. After the tour was over i went to see if somebody was staying in the room and nobody was staying in that room. Me and my dad caught a old lady in mid 1800's dress. And me and my dad caught a lot of orbs on camera. hi i am jonathan and i recently took a tour there and i had a encounter with a spirit.

Our tour guide did an amazing job of getting us to interact with the ghost. My family and I took a few pictures, and some of our pictures had orbs of light. I guess those where ghosts. The tour took about an hour and a half and I would extremely recommend that tour to families that enjoy things like that. I resently took a tour of the Stanley hotel.

Just wanted to comment that, though the film "The Shining" wasn't shot there, the TV mini-series used The Stanley as one of their filming locations. Just watched it yesterday and saw that in the credits. Hi!

WoW! Stephen King got his inspiration from this hotel? Then it must be unusually special! "The Shining" is 1 of SK's awWwsomest work, 1 of my favorites.
