Eureka Springs Crescent Hotel, circa 1886. |
Ghosts have long been a phenomena of Eureka Springs and especially The 1886 Crescent Hotel & Spa. This phenomenon was broadcast to the world when The Sci-Fi Network presented an episode of its very popular series “Ghost Hunters” that featured the haunting legends of the hotel and nearby environs.
Two of the locals featured in that episode will be the featured presenters at this year’s “Third Annual Ghost Seminar” scheduled for Thursday, January 10 through Sunday, January 13 in The Crescent Hotel. Noted clairvoyants, Ken Fugate and Carroll Heath, will lead the seminars and investigations for all those registered.
“Our hotel is noted for unexplainable events of the ghostly kind,” said hotel general manager Jack Moyer. “This seminar is designed to explain some of those events.”
Thursday evening will feature a welcome reception in The Governor’s Suite where attendees will meet and greet each other as well as being introduced to Ken and Carroll. Following the reception, Ken and Carroll will be conducting a hotel ghost tour.
Friday’s activities include two seminars focused on meditation and development of medium powers. Later that evening attendees will be guided through an exclusive investigation of several of the hotel’s more “active” areas.
The seminar itself concludes on Saturday with two additional meditation and medium powers seminars readying attendees for that evening when they will embark on their own hotel investigation, totally unguided and unsupervised.
“This has proven to be a very popular offering here at The Crescent,” concluded Moyer. “We are so lucky to have Ken and Carroll with us to lead our guests through this journey into the unknown, the unexplainable.”
