THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Hotel Galvez is one of Texas's best-known haunted hotels and is closely associated with the spirit of a young woman believed to occupy Room 505. Guests have reported apparitions, cold spots, phantom perfumes, and unexplained activity throughout the hotel.
Said to be the oldest hotel on the island, Hotel Galvez has a haunted room 505. Reports say that very few people actually stay all night in that room, because there is an eerie presence that makes them feel uncomfortable. The mysterious scent of gardenias is said to be a clue to the ghost’s presence.
