The Haunting of the Omni Bedford Springs Resort and Spa John G Sabol

The Bedford Springs Resort and Spa is haunted. This haunting takes the form of two materializations. First are the historical documents, objects, and photographs on display there, the things left behind. The second involves those presences who have remained behind and/or have returned, former guests who continue to partake of the 'Bedford Springs Experience'. These returning guests are not professional 'ghosts', those encountered on 'ghost hunts' or sensed by mediums. They are also not commercial 'ghosts', those marketed by the resort for their economic potential. These ghosts are those frequently encountered by both staff and guests during the daily activities and routine tasks performed there. They add an uncanny element to the social character that is the Bedford Springs Resort and Spa.
