 Go to https://linktr.ee/ghostbites to follow the podcast on its feed and hear other seasons. Today on Ghost Bites, Mike and JT check into "America's Most Haunted Hotel," the 1886 Crescent Hotel & Spa in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. Mike details the hotel's notorious mid-life crisis when it was taken over by the charismatic but fraudulent "Dr." Norman Baker, who ran it as an experimental cancer hospital in the late 1930s. Mike covers the discovery of hundreds of bottles containing Baker's "cure-all" potions and, grotesquely, human tissue. Crucially, Mike includes the festive, yet chilling, ghost story of the Grand Christmas Tree that was inexplicably moved across the dining room during the holiday season. JT critiques Baker's fashion sense (a white linen suit and purple shirt), breaks down the sheer terror of a hospital using the basement kitchen as a morgue, and analyzes the spirits left behind, from the falling stonemason Michael to the ever-helpful cancer patient Theodora.
