A Haunting at the Greenock Hotel
The original Greenock Hotel was located on the other
side of the road from the one we see today. It was moved to its current location
in 1956 by Mr G.E. Schluter into a house and corner shop that was once the
General Cash Store, built in the 1850s by James Jackman.
Prior to the hotel, the building had also
been used as the local post office.
In the 1960s a young married couple went to stay at
the hotel with the new husband’s aunt. After closing, the couple retired to
their bedroom. The newlywed wife awoke and went into the kitchen for a drink
of water. As she passed the former living room, now a lounge, she witnessed a
large coffin draped in black cloth and a host of people dressed in black
standing around the coffin, silently weeping.
Over the years, other guests have also
witnessed the same mourning event in the room.
Guests have also reported small objects, like keys
going missing, only to find them in another place, far from where they knew
they had been placed. Cold spots and doors opening and closing of their own
volition are also reported.
