The Bottom Line:

As the story goes, a chambermaid was engaged to another hotel employee who disappeared after a late-night poker game. Distraught, she cried inconsolably for days. A few weeks later, she disappeared, presumed drowned in the river outside.

The Story:

Hotel guests hear her cries near where the former employees' dormitory once stood. Occasionally the linens are messed up, as if someone was searching for something among them.

The Haunting:
