The Pfister Hotel, Milwaukee
The Pfister Hotel in Milwaukee is described as a historically haunted hotel where guests, particularly members of visiting Major League Baseball teams, have reported various paranormal occurrences, including disembodied footsteps, voices, moving objects, and electronics turning on and off. While some believe the spirit of hotel founder Charles Pfister or others may linger, the hotel itself maintains that the stories are urban legends, focusing on its "spirit of hospitality" rather than ghosts. Guests have reported hearing disembodied footsteps, knocks, and voices. Some guests have described seeing apparitions of Charles Pfister, and others report feeling as if they were touched. Objects have been reported to move on their own, with one account of a baseball player finding clothes scattered around his locked room. Reports include radios and TVs turning on or off by themselves. Charles Pfister: The spirit of Charles Pfister, the son of the hotel's owner from the early 1900s, is believed to be the primary entity, with sightings of his apparition on the hotel's staircase. Many Major League Baseball players have reported experiencing the strange occurrences, contributing to the hotel's "haunted" reputation. While some like Mookie Betts don't necessarily believe in ghosts but can't sleep because they're spooked, others, like former Pfister Narrator Anna Lardinois, believe the ghost is indeed Charles Pfister.
