The hotel ghost

A dark night in January, 2006, the hotel owner was awakened by footsteps upstairs. First thought was "Now I've forgotten to close the front door upstairs, and some tramp has gotten in". Since the night was both snowy and cold, this seemed likely. A little angry, she went up to confront the freeloader but to her surprise, everything was closed, locked and silent.

A few weeks later a guest asked if the hotel was haunted. The answer was, of course, no. Now, almost five years later, too many people have heard, sensed, or even seen the shadow of something, so a friendly ghost probably live at the hotel.

It could be the spirit of Elvira, who has come to the hotel with one of her old things. So has at least this been explained by a psychic person. It can of course also be the old pipes or the hotel cat that haunts the hotel.
