We recently received a picture from the folks who run the ghost tours at the Crescent Hotel in Eureka Springs, AR. Apparently a guest sent in this picture, which they took with their phone while on a ghost tour with my family back in December of 2010. The picture was taken in Theodora's room, which my Aunt Tina and her family were staying in that night (find the original story of that night here), and it features my mom standing next to the tour guide (seen below in the red vest), with another hotel guest and a rather mysterious, semi-transparent figure standing behind them.

While the photo quality certainly isn't the greatest, we all know from memory and other photos taken that night that the wispy figure standing between my mom and the tour guide was not visibly present in Theodora's room that night. Perhaps Dr. Baker came down his secret stairway in the wall (located behind the tour guide) to hear the stories being told about him that night.
In other news, SPI will be traveling to Louisiana this summer to visit Oak Alley Plantation, located along the Mississippi River in Vacherie, and the very popular (and supposedly very haunted) Hotel Monteleone in New Orleans. We'l keep you posted on what we find at both of these beautiful, historic locations when we visit in June.
