Can Hotels be haunted?

Can hotels be haunted? I say, "Heck Yeah!" Last week I was in New Orleans and we stayed at the Hotel Monteleone (check out the video at this link). It is a beautiful hotel. Little did we know that it has a history of being haunted. From the very first day everyone noticed the elevator had a mind of it's own and would let you off on random floors. I didn't think anything of it except that it was annoying. Then we found out that the 14th floor was supposedly haunted so a few of us went up there to check it out. These 2 pictures were taken right in front of the room where a 10 year old kid died years ago. They were taken one right after another. Pretty weird if you ask me.

New Orleans was a lot of fun especially the food. I had Alligator cheesecake and Alligator sausage, turtle, Buckets of Craw fish, and now one of my favorites raw oysters.

I deffinitely believe in ghosts. That's for sure! I hear alligator is pretty good, I actually had alligator jerky once, and it tasted like regular beef jerky.

I would have been freaked out staying there. It sounds like you had a great trip, which is great.

Pretty spooky. There is no way you would even get me into the door of that hotel!!!!!!!!!! I am glad that you liked the alligator, no thanks again for me though!

Hey Jared -- decided to come catch a glimpse of your life from your sister's blogs. It was fun to read about your family and see your cute kiddos. Take care!
