025 Biltmore Hotel - Florida
In Ghostly’s twenty-fifth episode, Pat and Rebecca explore one of the most haunted hotels in America, the Biltmore Hotel in Coral Gables, Florida, just outside of Miami. Not only is the Biltmore one of the most beautiful hotels, but it also houses so many ghosts that parts of the hotel are only rented when there is no other choice. Is the Biltmore haunted?

Time for the debate! Rebecca shares
evidence of some of the most common ghost sightings at the Biltmore. Hear about
the employees and what they see, the man at the foot of the bed, the woman in
white, and the gangster who holds court throughout the hotel, but especially on
the 13th floor. Pat, of course, has a response to all of these.
