THE HAUNTED HOTEL CONGRESS
Built in 1919 and haunted ever since, the Hotel Congress is the perfect home for things that lurk in the shadows — apparitions in period clothing, a rose-scented specter on the staircase, and creatures that appear and vanish without a trace. One of the most haunted hotels in the country, it's only fitting that the cryptids come out to play here.
