A few weeks ago I spent a weekend with my husband's family in Eureka Springs. I'd never really been to Arkansas (unless you count a quick stop at a gas station somewhere along the border), and I was pleasantly surprised by Eureka Springs!

It was such a neat little place. All kinds of cute shops, restaurants, and live music. And lots and lots of hills! I think I walked like 5 miles that first day.

But here's the thing: we staying in the most haunted hotel in America! It's called the Crescent Hotel. It was beautiful, but also a bit creepy.

The first night there we did a ghost tour of the Crescent's sister hotel, the Basin Park hotel. That tour was less ghosts and more history. But we did get to go on the roof and see the amazing view.

After seeing the roof we visited the Barefoot Ballroom. Of all the places in this hotel, I think this was the creepiest area. The history of the place was pretty cool. I'd tell it to you, but it took our tour guide about two hours to tell us all about it and I don't want to write a novel here.

On Saturday we drove around the area, stopping by a couple of lakes and the river. We also took a ride on an old train.

Later that night we did the ghost tour at the Crescent Hotel. It was way scarier than the other one, especially since a little girl fell to her death right outside our room! Allegedly she haunts that area, tugging on the sleeve of women and kids. There are supposed to be a variety of ghosts in the hotel, most with sad and tragic stories.

Let's just say I didn't really sleep that night! Our room was a little creepy to begin with. Mostly dark with a weird little closet. If I didn't have to sleep in the room I probably would've like it more.

We left Sunday morning, and I'm not sure I've been happier to check out of a hotel. I really loved Eureka Springs and I can't wait to go back, but I never want to stay at the Crescent again!
