When most people think of haunted hotels in Eureka Springs, they think of the Crescent Hotel on the top of the hill.
But lurking down below in the heart of downtown, there are plenty of good ghost stories to tell.

The stories are just as spooky down the hill at the Basin Park Hotel.

There are legends about visitors who checked into the hotel but never really left.

Many say they saw ghosts of ballroom dancers, or even a young girl in a long white dress who still waits for her groom.

The hotel staff can tell you which rooms to stay in if you want a spooky night.

Also in Eureka Springs, often called the “Most Haunted Hotel in America,” you can find plenty of spooks at the historic Crescent Hotel.

There are stories of various haunted happenings on the 2nd floor where a ghost named Mike has been “allegedly” haunting visitors for years.  Mike died during construction of the hotel.

“One thing we hear about Michael is we see the bed indent. A lot of times people report that when people are laying down they feel something pushing and holding them down. I personally have seen things in the room be moved around. Door locked, closed. Open it back up. Pictures are moved in different locations,” said Jack Moyer, General Manager of the Crescent Hotel.

Ghost tours are also popular, as visitors get a visit to the basement morgue where many ghost sightings have reportedly happened.
