The permanent resident at this historically haunted hotel goes by the name Tony. Tony died in 1882 while visiting from New York. He and his brother and a few friends went out sailing and the boat tragically sank. He didn’t go far though, because his presence is frequently felt by the owners and multiple guests.
A harpist by trade, a prankster in the afterlife, Tony has an affiliation with women’s jewelry, underwear, and socks. You may find that your earrings have relocated from where you left them, or your dresser drawer is open when you wake up.

The owner’s don’t seem too bothered by their resident guest, though. Although he has never been seen, it’s pretty common to hear him walking around the rotunda or up the stairs. He’s even been known to lock and unlock doors after they’ve been secured.
