Summary

The Holly Hotel is located in Holly, Michigan and has survived through several fires, the Great Depression, two world wars and a visit from the infamous temperance leader Carrie Nation. This is a beautiful Queen Anne Victorian that once provided lodging to railroad men and is today a popular restaurant that reputedly is full of ghosts. Join us as we share the history and hauntings of the Holly Hotel! The Moment in Oddity features the Eggnog Riot of 1826 and This Month in History features an avalanche in Peru that killed thousands. Our location was suggested by Chelsea Flowers.
