Brown Palace Hotel Ghost
Rate this encounter:
Robert Brown - Denver, Colorado - June 19, 2005
My name is Christina and the story I'm going to tell is actually my father,
Robert Brown's. In 2005 my parents and I were staying at a hotel in Michigan
when we saw this TV program on the Travel Channel about ghosts. On the show
it featured a place called The Brown Palace Hotel. At the time my parents
were planning on visiting Denver soon to visit my sister who was attending
school there, and they looked into staying there. Needless to say the rooms
were way out of their price range so they decided against going there
altogether.
When June came my parents went to Denver to see my sister and when they were
getting their rental car they asked the salesperson if the Brown Palace was
nearby, and luckily it was. They decided to walk in and take a few pictures
just for kicks. My father took several pictures on his digital camera, but
all of them looked mundane so he didn't even think that he had caught
anything. When they returned home a few days later, the first thing my
father did was to upload his pictures on his computer. As we were all
looking through the pictures, we were totally shocked when we saw this
picture. It was definitely something none of us were expecting. My father at
the time was a
huge skeptic, and he never believed in ghosts, whereas
my mother and I have always been solid believers. Seeing this photo totally
changed his opinion.
Of course we were all surprised, but we always wanted to know if this photo
could be a motion blur or something like that. So we sent it to Dale
Kaczmarek of the Ghost Research Society, and he studied the photo and told
us that he indeed thought it was a legitimate photo of a ghost.
