Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

My friend and I stayed this past weekend in room 213. We had several things happen while we were there. Odd things that occurred and left us believing for sure that there is some type of paranormal activity that resides at the Crescent.

The first thing we had happen – We were ready to leave for town, or a little shopping – this was on October 1st. I had laid my camera beside my purse on the bed. I had go to the rest room, my friend was in the other bathroom area putting on her makeup. After I came out I asked her where my camera was. We both were looking for it only to find it was laying on top of my suitcase rocking back and forth about to fall off, it was barely even on the suit case. It shocked us both and made chill bumps go on our arms, we took numerous pictures of it.

Then that night we set up our EVP that we had brought and could pick up a ringing sound on it and also someone saying like the name Bill or something close to that. We found out later that the name affiliated to that room in the past is a person with the last name of Baines. We could also hear a very low cough / almost like a sickly cough.

Then on Sunday morning we awoke to find that the new roll of toilet paper that we had put on the toilet paper holder had been removed and was sitting behind the shower curtain on the tub area. Neither of us had even gone to the restroom at that point.

I do believe that room 213 has paranormal activity in it and I believe that they are just a little mischievous but not out to harm anyone in anyway, more on the playful side. Staying at the Crescent was an experience. We enjoyed every minute of it. We are booked for room 218 next October. I would also like to add the Ghost Tour was awesome. We had Chuck – he was very personable and informative. We are excited to return next year. The staff was very friendly and the brunch and breakfast, the best…

Looking forward to next October.
