The most documented paranormal experience occurred in 1997-98 when Head Chef Ken Platt witnessed extraordinary activity during his stay in staff quarters on the third floor. Over the course of a weekend night, Platt experienced what seemed to be another person repeatedly walking the landing, entering the adjacent room, switching lights on and off multiple times, then pacing the corridor for hours. The light switching became increasingly frantic, continuing in rapid succession for approximately thirty minutes before stopping. When Platt inquired about the disturbance, he discovered he was the only person on the third floor that night, as the bar manager had gone home for his days off. This revelation led to Platt learning about the hotel's reputation for housing two distinct spirits. A chambermaid from the 1990s reported encountering a translucent man wearing a wide-rimmed hat who walked directly through a door toward her before passing through a wall. Staff revealed this apparition was known to follow the path of a hidden staircase that once existed in that location. The child spirit Peter is heard playing and creating sounds that delight visiting children, suggesting an intelligent haunting that responds to the presence of young guests. Multiple witnesses report feeling watched in the upper corridors, and the persistent nature of the footsteps and light manipulation suggests spirits who remain tied to their earthly routines from centuries past.
