Ghost Bites

For our Season 2 finale, Mike, JT, and a special guest are checking into the grand, historic, and famously haunted Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. Mike details the hotel’s spectacular, isolated mountain setting, the history of its founder, and the specific rooms—like 418, 217, and areas of the adjacent Lodge—known for intense paranormal activity. JT debates whether the ghosts have access to room service, questions the decorating choices of a 1909 ghost, and offers his unsolicited advice to Stephen King on how to make his next stay less terrifying. It's an extended episode full of history, high-altitude anxiety, and the terrifying inspiration behind one of the greatest horror novels of all time: The Shining.
