Haunted Hotels
From the Series Spooky Stories for Grades 3-8
These hotels have rooms where guests sometimes check in… and wish they could immediately check out! Haunted by their histories, the 11 hotels visited in this title have it all: rooms that turn icy cold for no reason, beds that suddenly have the impression of bodies lying down when none are present, shadowy figures carrying candles up stairways; handprints appearing on mirrors, doors slamming for no reason; and pictures flying off walls. Kids will be fascinated by the nonfiction histories that inspired these tales of paranormal activity. Whether or not the ghosts and their hauntings are real is left for the reader to decide.
