THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Walking Horse Hotel is associated with reports of ghostly apparitions and unexplained activity. Visitors have described mysterious footsteps, shadow figures, and strange noises inside the historic inn.
At this very spot, the Union soldiers released many Confederate prisoners at the end of the Civil War, many of whom were very sick and malnourished and died in the hotel. To make matters worse, in the 1970s a Vietnam vet had a flashback and shot 4 hotel guests to death. As one would think, the hotel is very active with supernatural phenomena, including the sounds of voices, gunshots and walking and running footsteps in the hallways. Of the hotel’s 13 rooms, Room 11 is said to be the most active and folks here have reported a feeling of being watched.
