Haunted Places in Flagstaff

In 1931 Flagstaff, Arizona, Dean Eldridge, built the largest log cabin in the southwest. He filled his home with trophy heads of many animals in the region. When he died in 1936, a saddle maker, Doc Williams, bought the cabin and turned it into a nightclub named "The Museum Club." He kept all the mounted heads on the walls to add atmosphere. It is now a country music dance club. For years, stories have persisted that the place is haunted by the ghost of the original builder, Dean Eldridge as he hated country music.

The hotel Monte Vista in Flagstaff was built in 1926 and opened for business January 1, 1927. During the 1940′s & ’50′s, over 100 major movies were filmed in and around Flagstaff. Since the Monte Vista was the best hotel around, many movie stars made it their home while working on location. For years now, the Monte Vista has become a legend for being haunted. Paranormal investigators and several TV shows like “Unexplained Mysteries” have all confirmed what many, many guests have reported – there’s a lot of weird, unexplained stuff going on in this hotel! Haunted rooms, hallways, and music coming from the ballroom when nobody is there are common. The hotel's front desk staff also reports the lobby phone will often ring, but when answered, the only sound is static and an eerie, other-worldly voice saying, “Hello? Hello?”

The very haunted Hotel Monte Vista.
