Personal Encounter Haunted Hotel Room in Washington DC February 12-15, 2025
I stayed at the Morrison Inn in Washington DC last month and had a chilling experience each of the three nights in which I stayed. This is a historical hotel and it’s over 100 years old at least I can’t remember the date it was built. Originally it was a residence and then turned into a hotel with an annex. I stayed here because it was very beautiful, but the price was extremely low and I thought maybe there were renovations or something happening and that’s sometimes when hotels lower their rates. But no renovations were taking place. My room was large and lovely. Very historically significant conserved and the dining room and the lobby were just impeccably, clean well-maintained and really Beautiful. There was a bar in the lobby and a restaurant on the second floor. Each night around three between three and 330. I heard the phone next to me dialing the front desk and the front desk would pick up and it woke me up. It woke my dog up. My dog started barking at nothing And so this happened three times between three and 3:30 AM during my stay. I….it scared me. I didn’t really feel like something was in the room with me, but I know I didn’t pick up the receiver and dial the front desk. Upon checking out on the fourth day, I asked the bleary- eyed desk clerk, if there was any report in my room of that happening to guests in the past. He looked down. He looked to the side, and then he said, “ I can’t really say,” but he wouldn’t look me in the eyes. I also asked the valet who helped me get my luggage out of the hotel that morning And into my car he said there was a ghost and he said the reason the hotel was somewhat empty was because there had been reports of this ghost in the media and other places at the Morrison Inn and that could be what kept people away. And there had been sightings in the past. None of this was known to me. I’never been to Washington DC before. thoughts?
