St. Petersburg: A Ghost Hunting Tour to Remember
Posted By itwas1793 on October 29, 2009
The following account comes from Judy, a Ghost Tour guide in St. Petersburg, Florida. The night in question, October 25th, she was conducting a Ghost Hunting Tour. By all accounts, it truly was a remarkable experience.
“In the Sunrise (maybe Sunshine) meeting room, one of the guests had taken a photo in the far right corner which showed an orb and a strange marking, like an arrow tip, pointing into a nook in the wall. He zoomed into the orb with his camera, and showed me a definite, leering face of a man within the orb. The strange marking had shown up on three photos in a row, moving position every time. The ‘arrow’ was in close proximity to the orb. We decided to enter the room to inspect the wall to see if there was a physical explanation for the marking. There were only the two of us in the room, the young man who took the picture standing to my right, when I ran my hand along the wall to check for undulations. Finding nothing unusual, I said, ‘There’s nothing here.’ The moment I finished speaking, I felt my hair being gently pulled back from the left side of my neck. There was no one standing to my left (that I could see). I stood transfixed, when suddenly something grabbed the left side of my neck, a little roughly. I jumped, very startled, and became angry, stomping out of the room telling the ghost that what it did was not very nice, and to not do that to me or my guests.
When I entered the lobby, most of the guests were huddled around a young woman who had visited the same meeting room shortly before my encounter. She said that something brushed her cheek, but not roughly. Where she had been touched, her cheek was bright red, and there were visible finger marks. I asked for someone to inspect my neck, where a red welt was discovered in the spot where I, too, had been touched. The welt was gone by the next day.
There was something else I didn’t mention to you earlier. One of the guests showed me a picture of what he thought was a paranormal occurrence in the meeting room next to the Sunrise room, but all I could see was a vacuum cleaner up against the wall. One group who had been in that room earlier mentioned that when they were in that room, the vacuum was in the center of the room. We asked the desk clerk where the vacuum cleaner normally would be, and she said that the hotel never leaves that vacuum in the meeting room. She wondered what it was doing in there, at all.”
We can’t wait to see what awaits our next Ghost Hunting Tour!
Pictures coming soon…
