THIS looks like a fun place to stay. but then, I'm into ghosts. "Mozartman" Hotel Vendome 230 S Cortez St, Prescott, AZ (928) 776-0900 If you stay in room 16 at the Hotel Vendome in Prescott, Arizona, you just may find that it is haunted by the ghost of Abby Byr and her cat, Noble. Abby came to Arizona searching for dry desert relief from tuberculosis and soon married. She and her new husband bought the hotel but they eventually lost it because of unpaid taxes. Regardless, the new owners allowed Abby and her husband to stay on in the hotel for no charge. She died in 1921 and her ghost, along with that of her cat, began to be seen after World War II. The stories say that Abby died of starvation, along with Noble, after her husband deserted her. She has been haunting the place ever since. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Virgil Silhanek" To: Sent: Tuesday, September 16, 2003 7:53 PM Subject: Re: [Az-Geocaching] Re: Prescott Breakfast Event cache this Sat. > My wife and I enjoy walking around the square with the shops on Whiskey > Row.
