The history behind this Ozark Mountain town truly is something else, especially when you factor in the two notorious years that Norman Baker has his run. Though the Baker Cancer Hospital days may be the majority of the hauntings that reside within this historic hotel, there are a few spirits from the other building’s other eras that make an appearance.
Though no matter what glimpse into the past you get with the spirits that still roam these halls, there’s simply no denying that there’s something otherworldly happening inside the walls of the “castle in the sky.”
Have you ever had an experience here?
Think you’d last a night inside if given the chance to stay?

Every January, the Crescent Hotel closes down for a night or two and allows guests to roam the hallways of this once former hospital turned luxury hotel. Investigating with the help of the Crescent Staff, the hotel is turned over to the guests to find what paranormal activity can be conjured up in this one-of-a-kind experience! From Estes sessions in Norman Baker’s former office to coming into contact with the hotel’s most infamous ghost, Michael, and even getting a glimpse at the morgue in the basement—- there’s a truly something for everyone to experience at the Crescent!
So, what exactly happens when the lights turn off and you’re left to roam America’s Most Haunted Hotel by yourself? I guess you’ll just have to jump on a Lockdown and find out what paranormal activity awaits you…

Norman Baker, a quack doctor from Iowa, opened the Baker Cancer Clinic in what we now know as the Crescent Hotel in 1937. For two years, Baker made fraudulent claims saying he could cure cancer, but instead, he took desperate patient’s money and lives without a care in the world. In 1940, Baker was arrested on mail fraud charges, putting an end to his reign of terror.
In 2019, 80 years since the closure of Baker’s Cancer Clinic, a gruesome discovery unearthed hundreds of glass bottles and specimens. Bottles filled with medicines, jars home to human tissue samples, and even the cancerous tumors that Norman Baker had cut out of his patients were just some of what was recovered— and currently on display in the former morgue that can be found in the hotel’s basement.
Today, the Crescent Hotel is crowned as America’s Most Haunted Hotel with visitors checking in from all over the world to not only stay in a piece of macabre history, but also to maybe have an experience for themselves. While access to the morgue is only available on paranormal tours, investigations, or the hotel’s annual Lockdown, you can still have an experience on any floor of this hotel!
Think you’re brave enough to check in for the night?
Would you ever investigate the ’s Morgue?

Those who’ve booked a stay inside the historic hotel have walked away with stories to tell and experiences to send shivers down anyone’s spine. Many reports have come in over the last century of visitors encountering objects moving and disappearing by themselves, smelling the phantom perfumes from the former ladies of the night, disembodied whistling and voices, and so much more! Though perhaps the eeriest stories from here are those of the former cowboy spirits that still roam looking for their horses and possibly some trouble as they’ve been known to appear at the foot of your bed in the middle of the night!
Many believe that the hotel being built on the ashes of the former Perry House that burned in 1890 is the reasoning behind the hauntings. Some chalk it up to the mystic healing waters that flow through Eureka Springs, the very thing that made this once hidden place into the town it is today.
Whatever the reason is behind the Basin Park’s paranormal phenomena, there’s no denying that something otherworldly is afoot in that little mysterious town in the Ozark Mountains.
Have you ever stayed in the Basin Park Hotel? Got any ghost stories to share from your travels to Eureka Springs? đź‘€

The drinks were to die for, the vibes were as delightfully eerie, and I’m so grateful we were able to catch them while they were open for a bit.
Have you ever been? What drink do you recommend us getting next? 👀👻

This year may not have been the lightest, but as I find myself reflecting back on everything that’s been crammed into this year, it’s certainly been one for the record books. A trip across the pond, articles written about my adventures, new states unlocked, and bucket list locations crossed off— it still feels like a dream and I am so incredibly grateful for every second of it, those who’ve hand a helping hand, and the friendships made along the way.
Here’s to the new year and the new hauntings that await! 👻✨

Charles Howard was a gift to the world as he brought Christmas magic and joy to thousands with his alter-ego, Santa Claus. In 1937, Charles Howard opened the very first Santa Claus School in Albion, New York, teaching the methods and philosophies to department store Santas from all over the country.
While he taught, Charles continued to perfect his own role and had an impressive 70 year career of embodying the beloved holiday figure. He starred as Santa in various television shows, the Macy’s Day Parade from 1948 to 1965, and even became the “Santa Consultant” for the iconic Christmas film Miracle on 34th Street!
Charles Howard may have passed in 1966, but the spirit of Christmas and Santa Claus will always live on through his legacy! 🎅

Throwback to when I stopped at the Bobby Mackey’s rubble site this past summer and couldn’t stop making this joke as I walked around and collected some bricks from this allegedly haunted and “demonic” bar. Currently, it’s in the process of being reconstructed, so I guess only time will tell just how haunted this land and location may be with all their construction potentially stirring up activity…
I didn’t even realize this was in my drafts and now I can’t stop laughing at my own dumb joke. 💀

Below deck of the Battleship North Carolina is a section to the ship that’ll send a chill down just about anyone’s back. In 1942, the lower-deck washroom suffered a devastating torpedo attack and claimed five lives with it, leaving this section of the ship cloaked in an eeriness that many feel to this day.
Those who’ve had access to experience this space have experienced an array of paranormal phenomena. Many have reported seeing hatch doors move by themselves, hearing disembodied footsteps, hatch doors moving by themselves, and feeling like they’re being watched or followed.
Though for a few (un)fortunate souls, they’ve walked away with an experience of the blond sailor apparition that many believe could be one of the torpedo victims. While he’s known to hang around the lower-deck and seen moving through the claustrophobic passageways.
For some, he leads the chase, but for others, he follows…
Think you’re up for a night of investigating here?

The Merch Store is stocked with Ghoul Guide shirts, photography post card prints, magazines, and POLAROIDS! That’s right, the Polaroid story sales have moved over to the new store where they’re sectioned by state and will be updated frequently!
The Ghoul Blog’s first post is up and ready for you! Dive into the story of my first paranormal experience and the eerie recent connection to it that was recently uncovered, and let me know if you’ve had any similar encounters in your paranormal adventures.
I couldn’t have accomplished this new chapter without the help of over at! Sidney truly got the vision I was wanting to go with and has been an incredible friend to work with during this whole process. Please give them some love and check them out if you need any fun branding and marketing help!
With that being said, I’m thrilled to be able to welcome this new chapter in with you all, and I hope you enjoy the hard work that’s been put into making this new space a possibility for the new era of The Ghoul Guide and the opportunities that are awaiting!
Enjoy! 🖤👻 ||
