The Stanley Hotel

High in the Colorado Rockies stands a hotel that has welcomed presidents, movie stars, and curious travelers, but it is the ghosts that made it famous.In this episode, we uncover the story of the Stanley Hotel, an opulent mountain retreat built in the early 1900s that became as legendary for its hauntings as its grandeur. From its origins as F.O. Stanley’s vision of luxury and health to chilling reports of spectral children, phantom piano music, and rooms so active they inspired Stephen King’s The Shining, we explore the history and the paranormal legacy of one of America’s most iconic haunted hotels.Edited by Max Holechek
