Crescent Hotel (Eureka Springs, Arkansas)
Katie recommends this hotel: “It’s supposed to be one of the most haunted buildings in the States. They have regular ghost-hunting tours and suchlike. There’s also a lovely morgue in the basement from its days as a hospital that killed its patients — rip away the plaster in the walls and you can see bones. (More information here.) Unfortunately, I was only in the hotel for a few minutes, so I didn’t get the chance to see much. It’s also, sadly, very difficult to get into the basement to see the morgue and asylum (some of the hospital’s patients also went insane; the quack doctor’s cures affected their brains, so he basically tied them down until they flailed themselves to death). Hospital with a crazy doctor, haunted hotel, insane asylum, and morgue, all in one building? Morbidophile’s dream!”
