      My wife and I are from the uk. I was between jobs and we flew to the USA spent some time in New Orleans before hiring a car to drive to Savannah. On route we found apla e called the Gibson Inn, walked in and asked if they had a room, the lady on reception looked at me kind of funny and said yes. We had dinner and then went to bed. In the middle of the night the bad started shaking, I thought my wife was somehow making this happen but she thought it was me jifggling the bed. This happened a couple more times and I felt as though somebody else was there but saw nothing. The next day at checkout I felt too stupid to mention it. However, it nagged at me and about a year later I emailed them from the UK. My room was up two flight of stairs, go though an apeture, turn left, go down a corridor and turn left at the end. Then the room was on the right hand side down that corridor. The reply to my email said that our room had been next door to a notoriously haunted room.

    I stayed there with my mom and friend. We woke up in the middle of the night to a rocking rocking chair and the sound of things moving around in the next room over (part of our suite). I got up to get us water and when we drank it, it was salt water. The next day the tap was back to normal but the cups of water I poured was still salty. Note: my mom works for a water management district and talked to some experts and they said spontaneous and temporary saline backflip into a sink tap does not happen. This place is definitely haunted!

    I was having a drink with my parents in the bar, February of 2023, went to use the main bathroom under the staircase steps away from the bar. 2 urinals, a guy was using the one on the left, so of course I used the right urinal. He finished, washed his hands and left. Another person walked in and up to the urinal he was just at. When I finished, I went to wash and when I looked left, no one was there. It was the eeriest thing I’ve ever experienced. I heard someone walk in and could sense them standing right next to me. I came out, told the bartender and he said that’s a common experience. Gives me chills thinking about it!
