Does Dylan Thomas still haunt the Chelsea Hotel?
Yes, he does, according to a recent report on the Hotel Chelsea Blog. Dylan Thomas drank himself to death in the famous hotel in November 1953, and apparently he still comes back to visit. If you’re looking for a spooky story to impress your literary friends with, this is it. The blog quotes a young woman, whose story is certainly creepy. “I suddenly heard a door slam extremely loudly and a man yelling with the sound of frantic footsteps running down the hallway. I froze. The running continued for another three minutes or so and then was gone. I then heard the sound of footsteps creeping in the room behind me. This continued the entire night. Somewhere during the course of two hours, I suddenly looked up and right in front of the bedroom mirror, I saw a head in mid-air.
