If you’ve read “The People of the Waters” trilogy, you know that one character, Nate, has his own encounter with spirits in the Crescent Hotel — a well-known haunt of ghosts for decades.

This episode of “Haunting History” (2015) has a great interview with Keith Slade, manager of ghost tours at the hotel, and an investigation without all the artificial ghost-show hoo-ha (beyond the obligatory spooky music). There’s a wealth of historical information in the interview, which is what I really enjoy in the ghost and historical tours in town!
