Real Haunted House

Driscol Hotel

Austin, Texas

There are many legends surrounding this hotel. In one, a young girl fell down the stairs to hear death. It is said that occasionally, children�s laughter may be heard coming from the bottom of the stairs. In another story, a woman became depressed when her fiancee called off the wedding and thus hanged herself. The woman has allegedly been spotted wearing a wedding dress in several areas of the hotel. In the final story, it is said that a man spent many years of his life living in the hotel. He can now be seen smoking cigars throughout the building.

Don’t be afraid to wander the halls of the different floors but be prepared to feel a bit “lost.” The layout is a bit maze-like which can certainly add to it’s haunted feel. Open random doors to see old parts of the building that were never completely renovated; there’s something to be said for discovering an old room made of crumbling brick walls just beyond a wall of sheet rock (obviously you should make sure these aren’t emergency exits with alarms that will sound) If you feel like some exercise, climb the stairwells in the old part of the building to revel in views from the windows that you wouldn’t otherwise notice from the outside…Just a few tips from a recent Driskill exploration
