Have you ever heard of Coughlin’s Hotel? Coughlin’s Hotel is a lovely and unique place with a committed staff and a long history. Many guests have had a wonderful stay, extolling the hotel’s spacious rooms and elegant dining. Some guests, though, have posted some disturbing Yelp! reviews – often consisting of “Yelp!” or “Help!”
Those reviews contend that the spirit of a young girl named Coughlin roams the halls of this cursed hotel. They even suggest that some guests have lost their heads during a stay – literally… The hotel seems to thrive off the chaos it is surrounded by.
The staff are unique and quick-witted, but definitely, some characters you’d want to be friends with. I mean, how many people can say they’re friends with a zombie or crazy person? It’ll make for an unbelievable storytime. Apparently, half of the staff are ‘undead’. Actually… the better term might be “the walking dead”. Just like any other typical minimum wage employee, their eyes are dead, and there is no remnant of life or will. Despite the… well… deadness, the staff hold this sense of youthfulness, almost like something even stranger is going on behind the scenes. The hotel owner himself is an upbeat and cheery guy. You won’t even notice he’s dead (just don’t stare at him too much). He’s typically seen wearing a top hat or carrying a staff with a silver top carved with some delicate design. The bartenders look snazzy and are very skilled at their job. Though they only know how to make three drinks, those are some of the best drinks you will ever have. When you visit the Coughlin Hotel, swing by and try these once-in-a-lifetime beverages. They’re to die for. I heard the chef was also pretty insane. Wonder what’s up with that guy… Always talking about soup or something.
The guests aren’t any less interesting. There are rumors of someone creeping in the elevator, so make sure to double-check that you’re alone when you are near one. I wouldn’t recommend even entering the elevators unless you have a death wish. A beautiful wedding happened there a while back. Thinking about it now, I haven’t heard from the couple in a while. I wonder what they’re up to nowadays.
I also heard that if you had to endure the horrors of this tragic hotel, there was some kind of compensation. A tee shirt, I think. At least it’s something for your efforts. Getting a room at Coughlin Hotel is a whole bundle. Not only do you get a nice and clean room to stay in for the night, you get all the spooky and crazy tales. Grab some grub on the house that’s to die for – whether you’re undead or just hungry, we’ve got something to satisfy all your cravings. Entertainment is versatile as well. Artists happen to linger in the hotel, and they enjoy drawing portraits of the patrons. You’ll also have the opportunity to be your own inner artist and paint some pumpkins. Make them spooky or cute, whatever you feel like, but just make sure they don’t haunt you at the end of the night. Music always fills the hotel as well. You’re never stuck alone with the voice from inside the walls. Try your hand at some exciting raffles. I also heard there are prizes for those who manage to outdress the staff, so make sure to come suited up with your spookiest and most creative costumes. It is fair to say there is never a dull moment here at the Coughlin Hotel.
So, once again, swing by Coughlin’s Hotel while you still have the chance. I promise we don’t bite 😉
