Genesis-grimes

The sky started to darken, mirroring my negative mood. I sighed, feeling fatigue slowly start to take over my body.

Turning my black car's driving wheel, I drove into the 'Crescent Hotel" parking lot. I sighed, stepping out of the car and opening the trunk.

I grabbed an outfit, and shoved it into a bag before grabbing my purse and locking the car up.

I glanced up at the balcony of a room, seeing a dark figure stare at me intensely. My eyes widened and I felt goosebumps form on my skin.

The night was dark and cold, forcing a shiver make its way up my spine. I crossed my arms over my chest, as I shivered in my white dress. I approached the hotel doors, and quickly made my way inside, protecting myself from the cold misty air that surrounded me.

I walked in, feeling a heavy amount of energy fall onto my shoulders. I frowned deeply, before spotting an adorable black cat seated on the couch. I walked up to it and pet its soft fur, feeling my heart become warm. A smile grew on my face as I temporarily forgot about the dark, sad and longing feeling that lingered in the air, before walking up to the front desk.

"Hi, can I get a room for one night, please?" I offered a kind smile to the lady seated behind the counter. She returned the smile, and handed me a room key. 'Room 201'

"You'll be staying at room 201. That'll be 130$." My eyes widened at the price, but I was desperate for sleep. I opened my purse and grabbed my wallet, pulling out 150$.

"Keep the change." I smiled, collecting my stuff before heading up the spiraled stairs.

I was walking down a hallway, when I heard a faint "Damn baby! Back it up on over here, if ya will." In an accent. I turned around, fear gripping onto my chest. There was nobody there. I was completely alone. I frowned deeply, before rushing back to the stairs.

It took me a while, but I finally made it to my hotel room. I sighed happily, despite the feeling of sadness surrounding me.

I noticed a brunette boy leaving hotel room 202 and I smiled kindly at him. He returned the smile, as my eyes wandered to the camera located in his left hand. I tilted my head and raised a brow a little bit.

"Oh. I'm sorry." He laughed. "I'm a youtuber. Me and my friends are recording a video."

I was still confused. "What's so special about this place?" I looked around. I acknowledged the negative and sad energy around me, but shrugged it off.

"You don't know?" He asked me curiously.

"Know what?" I was a lot more confused now.

"This hotel is haunted." My eyes widened. it makes sense now. The figure on the balcony and the sad energy around here. No wonder.

"That makes sense." I shrugged, rubbing my hands up and down my arms.

"Why? Did you see something?" He asked me, concern swirling behind his blue eyes.

"Yeah I saw a figure on a balcony, but i just thought it was a person. Though it was creepy enough to give me goosebumps. It also feels sad. And angry here. Like there some sort of longing feeling. I also got catcalled by something that wasn't there. " I explained, giggling a bit at the end.

"Do you mind if i record you explaining that? If not that's alright. But it would be great to let the fans know."

"Sure, Mr. Popular." I smirked teasingly. He rolled his eyes playfully and turned on the camera and angled it at me.

"Okay so tell us what happened again...?" He trailed, searching for something.

"Y/n." I smiled.

"Okay so tell us what happened, Y/n."

"Soo, when I arrived here, I had no clue it was haunted until this handsome stranger told me." I smiled and winked jokingly. "But before I came in here, I saw a figure standing on a balcony and it was just.... staring at me. It gave me goosebumps. And after that, the second I stepped foot into the hotel the energy surrounding me felt, sad. Like previous people here were longing for something. And a bit of anger was hidden beneath the longing and sadness. I also got catcalled, but when I turned around I was alone. Whatever happened here must've been pretty bad." I explained for a second time but in more detail. "I still don't know what happened here, I just know that it's haunted."

I smiled at the boy behind the camera. "I'm colby, by the way." He mirrored my smile.

"Thanks for letting me know what I was getting myself into, Colby." I giggled as he put the camera down.

"Yeah, Sure." He laughed, his deep voice sending butterflies to my stomach. Heat rises to my cheek before he continued. "If you need anything me and my friend, Sam, will be in here. And maybe our other two friends. You're also welcome to join us, we're gonna be ghost hunting."

"Yeah, I'll consider it." I smiled kindly once more. "Thanks, Colby."

"No problem." he waved, returning the smile before walking down the hall. I opened my hotel room, rushing in and throwing my bag on my bed.

I sighed happily, finally being able to sleep. I couldn't shake the feeling of being watched, and I shivered a bit before trying to push the thought to the back of my mind.

I changed out of my white dress, and replaced it for pajama bottoms and a long sleeve shirt with holes for my thumbs.

I put fresh socks on before turning out the light and quickly hopping into the big bed.

I saw something in the corner, just before fatigue took over my body.

--

'Wake up' A females voice whispered in my ear.

I shot out of bed quickly, my eyes wide. Sweat dripped down the side of my head as I looked around my room. "Hello??" I said out loud. No response.

I shrugged it off as my imagination, and tried to fall back asleep.

—

I rubbed my eyes, tiredly sitting up.

“Why do I keep waking up.” I whispered to myself, picking up a clock that rested on a nightstand to the left of me.

“3:33.” I read out loud. “Isn’t that an Angel number?”

I shrugged it off, before I heard a mumbling. My head shot up and stared into the darkness that lie before me.

I squinted, trying to see into the black fog. I saw a figure. Staring at me. Menacingly. My eyes widened as I froze in fear.

A faint “What do you want?” Tore from my parted lips.

It didn’t respond, to nobody’s surprise, yet still stood there.

I sat in the king sized bed, slowly building up to courage to make a run for it.

When the courage was built, I leapt out of bed and ran for the door, only to be flung away from it.

I hit the wall, with a loud ‘thud,’ before landing on the floor.

Tears welled up in my eyes after I groaned in pain. My back was definitely gonna be bruised.

I crawled for the door as fast as I could, but got violently dragged by an invisible force. I dragged my nails against the carpet.

Once it let me go I quickly rushed to stand up but got aggressively pushed against the wall. The side of my face slammed into the wall, as an unbearable pain shot through my cheek at the violent contact. A Bible flew through the air and hit me in the face. Blood dripped down my nose as I cried in pain. I heard loud knocking on my door and my eyes widened.

“Y/n!? Are you okay?!” A familiar voice shouted.

I tried to get to the door but cried out when a sharp, stinging pain shot through my back.

I sobbed, feeling myself get dragged once more before the entity let go. I jumped up and ran to the door, flinging it open. I was met with four concerned faces, three of them being un-familiar.

I sobbed into my hands, as the traumatic event played over and over in my head.

“What the fuck happened?!” Colby asked.

“Are you okay?!” The blonde boy next to him asked.

“Th-there was something in there!!” I cried out as a blonde girl rubbed my back comfortingly.

“Come to our room for a second. We’ll help you and you can tell us everything.” A black haired girl said, her brows furrowed in worry.

I nodded, following the two girls as the two boys checked my hotel room for anyone.

We entered their hotel room and I sat down on the red sofa.

The blonde girl brought back a tissue and a cold water bottle.

I used the tissue for my nose, after giving a small thanks. I placed the water bottle on the huge bruise on my cheek.

“I’m kris.”

“Celina. And the other boys are Sam and Colby.” Celina said.

“Th-thank you guys.. so much.” You smiled gratefully.

“What happened?” Sam asked.

“I-I don’t know… there was this thing and it-it threw me around like I was a fucking rag doll.” I joked a bit, before wincing from the pain radiating on my back.

“I-I think it scratched my back.” I added. Colby came over to me and asked if he could raise my shirt. I nodded and turned around while he lifted it up.

Though I couldn’t see, they all had wide eyes and opened mouths.

“Holy shit!” Sam exclaimed. “Y/n do you mind if I record this?” He asked kindly, okay with either answer.

“You can, I don’t mind, it just hurts really bad.” I said in a pained voice. “Colby can you take a picture of it and show me?” I asked softly.

He said yes before snapping a picture of it. I stared at the picture in shock, a giant bruise on my side and three, long, bloody scratch marks starting from my upper back and ending right before the waistband of my shorts.

“Holy shit” i mimicked sam just as he started recording my injuries. I turned around and showed the rest.

“Do you wanna stay in our room for the rest of the night?” Colby offered.

“Yes please.” I said, a pleading look lingered in my eyes. “I don’t wanna go back into that room.” Tears welled up in my eyes as Celina and Kris both side-hugged me.

“It’s ok, Y/n you don’t have to.” Kris said, her brows furrowed.

“You’re safe with us. Especially the boys cause they’re a lot stronger than us.” Celina joked, attempting to lighten the mood. I laughed a long, wiping my tears.

“Thanks guys.” I said gratefully.

“Anytime.” The group postponed further exploration of the building so they could make sure I was alright.

Celina and Kris called it a night, heading to their own room to sleep or try to contact anything.

I started to get sleepy while Colby was treating my wounds. “I’m tired.” I admitted.

“I’m almost done, just try to stay up for one more minute.” He applied ointment to the scratches and ice to the bruises.

I was definitely gonna tell the hotel about this in the morning. Even though some people wouldn’t believe me, it was worth a shot.

Once Colby was done in informed me of it and I crawled under the sheets and lied in the middle of the bed.

Sam and Colby lied on either side of me, and yet I still unconsciously cuddled closer to Colby.

“Goodnight.” I sighed, feeling safe with the two boys I had only just met.

“Goodnight, Y/n.”

—

The end.

Crescent Hotel: Part 1: Discontinued

"What's up guys, it's Sam and Colby." Colby said, doing the intro. Sam was standing in front, holding the camera. [Y/N], Colby's girlfriend, was standing next to Colby, holding his hand. The bell started tolling right as Colby said the intro, making everyone flip out. [Y/N]'s eyes widened.

"You just said that at the exact same time the bell started ringing!" [Y/N] shouted, laughing. Celina's eyes widened.

"It's an omen!" She said, making [Y/N] laugh even more. Sam looked at Colby.

"How did you time that?" He asked. Sam then looked at the camera again. "Alright, before we show you who we have with us today, can we just take a moment to appreciate, [Y/N]'s shirt." Sam said. [Y/N] let go of Colby's hand and pulled down on her shirt, showing what was on it. 

“I ain't afraid of no ghost!" [Y/N] shouted. Colby gave her a face of disbelief. [Y/N] smiled and nodded. "Actually, that's, that's a lie. I am afraid of them." She said, making everyone laugh. Sam looked at [Y/N].

"[Y/N], would you like to do the honors?" He asked. [Y/N] quickly raced behind the two women who were with the group, wrapping her arms around their shoulders. 

"Ladies and gentlemen and others! We are here today, with CelinaSpookyBoo, and KallMeKris!" [Y/N] shouted excitedly. Kris gave a wide smile and Celina waved aggressively at the camera. Sam smiled.

"Aka, literally the biggest tick-tockers in all of Canada." Sam said. "Everyone obviously loves Celina. Kris, how you feeling right now?" Sam asked. Kris shrugged.

"I got a lot to live up to, apparently," she said, making everyone laugh. "But I'm excited, I'm terrified!" Kris said. [Y/N] looked at Kris.

"Are you, like, super into ghost stuff?" She asked. Kris looked at the woman.

"I'm super into ghost stuff." Kris said. [Y/N] smiled.

"Good. Cause you're going to be spending the entire night, with someone who can see the dead." [Y/N] said, smiling. Celina burst out laughing at that. She then looked at [Y/N].

"Wait, you're serious?" She asked. [Y/N] nodded, laughing.

"Yeah, I'm serious!" She said. Colby looked at his girlfriend.

"So, [Y/N], could you quickly explain, for Celina and Kris, and for our viewers who don't know, basically, who and what you are?" He asked. [Y/N] nodded. She clapped her hands.

"So, as many of you know, my name is [Y/N] [L/N], and I am a medium," [Y/N] explained, smiling. "So, there are different types of Mediums. There are the mediums that can pick up on auras and tell you about what they feel is going to happen to you in the future, like Nadia from the Stanley Hotel series, she is the type of medium that can pick up on auras. She is what is known as a psychic medium." [Y/N] explained. " Then, there are mediums that can see and feel different energies of spirits and entities, which is what I can do." [Y/N] explained. "My best friend, Amanda, she is also a Medium. If you all remember Amanda from the Conjuring House Series, Amanda can speak to, see and feel different spirits she comes across." [Y/N] said. Celina looked at [Y/N].

"So, when you see these spirits and entities, do they like, show themselves as they were, like when they were alive?" Celina asked. [Y/N] nodded.

"That's a great question. It really depends. Sometimes I can see spirits and entities extremely clear, like clear as day, and other times, they're just like, a blur, like they are just a shadow figure." [Y/N] explained. Kris nodded. 

“That is weirdly specific and kind of terrifying.” Kris said. Celina looked at [Y/N]. 

“So, like what are you feeling right now? What kind of energies are you picking up?” Celina asked. [Y/N] sighed and stayed quiet for a moment, trying to pick up on the different energies. 

“So, I’m sort of feeling like, a lot of the spirits and energies here aren’t like, out to hurt anyone, and they’re not dangerous, um,” she went quiet, trying to find the right words. “They’re more, I guess you could say, curious. I might be able to feel more once we get inside.” [Y/N] said. 

After getting inside, [Y/N] gasped and walked over to a chair. 

“Oh my gosh! That is the cutest thing I have ever seen!” [Y/N] said. In the chair, curled up, was a fluffy kitty. [Y/N] and Kris immediately knelt before the cat and started gently petting it. Colby looked at Sam. 

“Yo, could this be the cat General Manager?” Colby asked. Sam nodded. 

“This could be the General manager, Morris.” Sam said. [Y/N] looked up at the two boys. 

“Wait, are you two serious?” She asked. Sam nodded. 

“When this hotel was first started, they had a General Manager which was the cat. It was like a little orange tabby cat.” Colby explained. Sam looked at his best friend. 

“A cat was the general manager?” He asked. Colby nodded. 

“They made the cat a General Manager, and then when it passed away there were, like, 300 people that showed up to its Death Ceremony.” Colby said. [Y/N] looked at her boyfriend weirdly. 

“Death Ceremony?” She asked. Colby shook his head. 

“I meant funeral!” He said, laughing. Kris looked at him. 

“I love death ceremony way more!” She said, making everyone laugh. [Y/N] laughed and nodded.

“Way cooler!” She said. Kris kept gently petting the cat.

“So, is this who I come to if I need more pillows?” Kris asked. Sam and Colby nodded.

“Yes.” They said at the same time. After fawning over the cat a little more, the group headed up he stairs. Sam was walking in front, filming. [Y/N] was walking behind him, holding Colby’s hand. Then came Celina and Kris. They all looked around in aw.

“I love these walls!” [Y/N] said, as Sam turned around to film his friends. The group stopped and looked at [Y/N].

“Do you feel anything here, babe?” Colby asked, leaning against the railing. [Y/N] sighed. Her shoulders tensed up. It was clear that she was feeling a little nervous. She played with her fingers slightly, twisting the promise ring that Colby had given her around her finger.

“Um,” she let out a breath. “I, um, I definitely feel different energy on this staircase. Um, it’s, it’s like it’s,” her eyes moved around, trying to find the best description.

“Molding together?” Kris offered. [Y/N] nodded.

“Yes, molding together, thank you.” She said. Kris nodded. [Y/N] looked at Colby and the others.

“It feels like the energy is all, molded together. It’s really hard to get a read on it all. There is one presence that, I’m kind of weary of, but, I’m not quite sure who or what it is yet.”

The Man in the Wall

This pic was taken at the notoriously haunted Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, and appears to show an apparition walking out of a wall.

[archivist-crow]

The Haunted Atlas

Crescent Hotel - Eureka Springs, Arkansas, United States

36°24′30″N / 93°44′15″W

Nineteenth-century spa hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, renowned as one of the most haunted sites in the Ozark Mountains.

History

The hotel was built between 1884 and 1886 by a consortium that included the wealthy former governor of Arkansas, Powell Clayton. Its imposing design includes several archiectural styles. Construction was done by Irish stonemasons.

The wealthy flocked to the hotel to partake of the nearby mineral springs, touted for their healing properties. However, the hotel’s golden age lasted only about 20 years. When the springs were shown to have no particular curative powers, people stopped coming. In 1908, the hotel was turned into a college and conservatory for young women and then into a junior college. It closed in 1934.

In 1937, the hotel entered a dark period. It was purchased by Norman Baker, a con man from lowa who ran an illegal hospital for cancer patients. Though he had no medical degree, Baker was convinced he knew the cure for cancer. He set up his cancer hospital and carried on phony treatments. He redecorated the hotel in garish colors and hung machine guns on the wall. No one seems to have been cured by him, but records indicate that no one seems to have died either. According to legend, though, Baker practiced bizarre experiments on his patients and hid their bodies and jars of organs until he could burn them in the incinerator at night. Legend also tells of workmen in later years finding skeletons interred in the walls—more alleged Baker victims.

Baker's medical career ended in 1940, when he was arrested, tried, and convicted on charges of mail fraud concerning his cancer cure claims. He was sent to Leavenworth Prison for four years, and the hotel was closed.

From 1946 on, the hotel changed hands several times and was eventually restored to its original glory. Today it is a popular vacation destination.

Haunting Activity

The first ghostly resident joined the hotel when one of the original stonemasons fell to his death in 1885 in a spot now occupied by Room 218. The red-headed ghost has been named "Michael" by the hotel staff. Room 218 is the most active in the hotel. Guests are shaken awake at night and feel strange sensations.

In Room 202, a misty figure has been photographed. Another active room is 419, where a woman ghost introduces herself as "Theodora" and says she is a cancer patient. Numerous apparitions are seen in the hallways, including a nurse who wheels a gurney. Phantom footsteps are heard, and guests are touched at night. A man dressed in a Victorian suit appears in the lobby and bar.

Baker himself appears in the former recreation room; he is said to look lost. Basement storage areas, where legend holds that Baker stored his corpses and jars of body parts, have strange noises and apparitions. When the hotel still used its old switchboard, calls repeatedly came from the basement when it was locked and empty.
