Crescent Hotel

The Crescent Hotel was one of the PROS team's first out-of-state investigations. We saw boards moving without a cause and a figure was seen in the garden area. This is where the unsettled spirit of a young lady is said to roam. We also heard noises in the kitchen area. The sounds from the kitchen were investigated by the night clerk only to find no-one was in the kitchen! Plates and silverware were heard clanging. Even a pan was heard hitting the floor. In the rotating photos below you can see what appears to be an apparition of a lady in the window. This picture was captured at the chapel below the hotel. Sara, a RIPS member, sent these to us. Her friend took the photo while vacationing there. The Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, Arkansas is a great place to begin investigating. Don't forget to bring your camera.

PROS plans to go back in the near future!

Ron was at the Crescent Hotel on the 25th of April 2007 for a speaking engagement. Ron spent the night in the old hotel. He did collect some EVP in the basement area. A full investigation wasn't possible due to basic investigation rules. EVP's were not understandable but were captured. Someday the PROS Team will return and see what evidence can be collected. Hotels by nature are very difficult to investigate due to all of the activity of daily business.

These EVP's were captured at the Crescent Hotel. You will hear people talking; one of us said "Michael." A female voice is then heard in a whisper saying, "Michael, go into the light." This EVP was collected in Room 218. The next EVP was obtained in what was Dr. Baker's old Room. A female voice whispers "Get out." [2005 EVP's]

The Crescent Hotel can be an interesting place to stay. Many people are reported to experience paranormal activity while visiting or staying there. Others come and go and don't experience anything. Those who report encounters with the unknown sometimes tell stories that only persons who have experienced the phenomenon would believe. Such is the story of our last excursion to the Crescent Hotel.

Lisa, a former PROS team member, arrived at the Crescent at around 1:40 pm on the 25th of April 2007. Ron was already there and had given his presentation for the convention. Lisa's time to speak was at 2:15pm. Lisa greeted Ron and Harold the founder for the ORI [Ozark Research Institute]. Lisa had needed to make a phone call to a client's father who lived near the hotel. Lisa's phone wouldn't work due to a lack of service. Ron turned the phone off then back on, but still there was no service. Lisa then took her phone and placed it back in her purse. Lisa called the potential client with Ron's phone and made arrangements to visit the location.

After Lisa's presentation Lisa and Ron left the Crescent to visit the prearranged location just down the road.They arrived and looked around; Lisa was drawn to a particular location used for storage. As she moved along with the client and entered the establishment she immediately felt a presence as did Ron. Ron remarked It felt male and was ahead of us. Lisa had her voice recorder running before they entered. Ron made sweeps with an EMF detector (no hits). Lisa directed Ron and the client to the back of the location where several others had reported feeling something in the area. Close to an hour was spent there visiting and arranging another possible investigation in the future. Once finished, they drove back to the hotel to say their good byes and made their way back to Oklahoma City.

Lisa made final preparations to leave and decided to check all of her belongings only to discover her cell phone was missing! Steps were traced back to each location conducting a complete examination. The phone was not to be found anywhere! It was decided to go back to the Crescent and ask once again if the phone had been turned in; the response was "no." Ron asked Lisa to check and make sure she still had her credit cards. She picked up her purse, opened it and lying on top was her missing cell phone! They were both aghast. They had at least looked for it in her purse.

The time had passed by and it was raining. Lisa was very tired due to the long drive and the past event with the cell phone. Departure was delayed until the next morning. When morning arrived they decided to eat at a local cafe. They arrived to find Harold, founder of the ORI, and Jana, a psychic and good friend of Harold's. They invited them to have breakfast with them. They sat down and explained the past night's events to them. Jana laughed and said those type of occurrences happened often to her. We exchanged a lot of information with them. Ron suspects that there is more to the missing phone than meets the eye...Perhaps fate?
