Staying at a hotel can bring surprises, but some are both scary and funny. Whether they were guests or staff, these eight people found themselves in strange situations that were both weird and unsettling. From difficult customers to surprising things found in rooms, these stories will take you on a crazy adventure. But even when things go wrong, there’s always something to laugh about.

The Story:

I worked the night shift at a small hotel. One night, an older man called the front desk around 2 a.m., very scared. He whispered, “There’s a ghost in my room! It’s floating over my bed.” I ran to his room. He was standing in the corner, wide-eyed, pointing at the bed. When I looked, I saw he had thrown his suit jacket over a chair, and in the dim light, it looked like a shadowy figure standing next to his bed. I calmly picked up the jacket and said, “Here’s your ghost, sir.” He stared at me for a moment and then started laughing. He checked out the next morning, leaving a great review about our “ghost-busting” service.
