Strange Things At The Stanley Hotel - EVPs in Room 309
These were recorded using an Olympus WS-100 digital recorder. I just pressed record and put it on the dresser. The window was closed and ceiling fan was turned down. With the exception of myself at the beginning of the clip, the middle of the clip, and the end of the clip, there was nobody in the room. I do not have video proof that nobody was in the room, you will just have to take my word on it. What is posted below is just some of the sounds that were recorded that evening while we went on the Ghost Tour and had dinner at The Cascades. Again, nobody was in the room during this time.
First, a few expected noises to use as a baseline
or comparison:
Patrick
closing the bathroom door.
Patrick closing the main door as he leaves the room.
Just some people
talking in the hall outside our room.
The rest of these are the... well... the other noises.
Weird sound. If
you look at the filenames, the beginning number is how far into the recording it
is, so this happened while he was in the bathroom, and he heard nothing at the
time.
Another weird sound.
Knocks.
Something
creaks.
The
first noise is the church bells in the distance. The bells are actually from
the hotel. After that, there's some sort of movement. Then, I hear a faint male
voice, then a child's cry. Then you hear the door close.
A cry,
the door, then a whump.
Shhh!
Sounds
like scraping metal.
Something
slides and then a door closes.
Something
sliding.
Something
creaks.
You hear the
latch turn.
Once again,
the male, the cry, the door.
And again.
Latch again.
And again.
Sliding.
It really
likes to repeat itself. Sliding again.
Sounds
like someone is walking around.
The door,
then it sounds like somebody sniffs.
Knocks.
Knocks.
Knocks,
then the door latch.
Knocks.
Latch again.
Creaking.
Faint
screams.
There's the
latch again.
Screams
again.
Something
squeaks.
Knocks.
So there you go.
(If you want to listen to the file in its entirety, you can
here. The
whole thing is over 4 hours long, though, and the majority (again, you can see
the time stamps when the sounds occurred) of stuff happens over the first 2
hours.
