Aprašymas
Some Illinois travelers are so taken by their destination, they hunker down for eternity.
There's something about old hotels and locales that tourists flock to. The places are experiences unto themselves, but they also thrum, sometimes quite literally, with the lingering presence of those who previously paid them a visit. At the Mineral Springs Hotel in Alton, traces of floral perfume from a woman who took her life more than a century ago greet visitors in Room 220. Spirits abound at the DeSoto House Hotel in Galena, one bearing an unsettling likeness to Abraham Lincoln. At the Congress Plaza Hotel in Chicago, children from the past still laugh after dark.
Author Maria Salvo-Benson guides the intrepid through the most haunted hotels and getaways throughout the Prairie State.
