Summary

Tucked away in a tiny Indiana town, the Rhodes Hotel has lived many lives since 1893. What began as a glamorous Victorian inn during the gas boom era transformed into a brothel and speakeasy when times got tough. These days, it’s known for something much darker. Guests report footsteps in empty halls, full conversations with no one there, shadow figures lingering just out of sight, and the unmistakable feeling of being watched… or even grabbed. And then there’s the doll room. Packed wall to wall with vintage dolls, this space has become the epicenter of the hotel’s paranormal activity. Add in a chilling childlike voice, a grieving spirit possibly reaching out for help, a ghost cat brushing past your legs, and storms that seem to charge the entire building with energy… and yeah, we’re not staying the night without backup.
