Just in time for Halloween!
I'm not a big fan of Halloween, Ghost Stories and such and you will NOT find me in the theater watching a movie that I have paid good money to get into just to have the beejeebers scared out of me. I'm happy that others support the arts in this fashion but I'm just not going to do it. That being said ...................
There are some intriguing stories though about ghosts in and around the Enterprise and South Alabama area. Just click on the links at the bottome of the page to read tales of The Rawls Hotel located at 116 Main Street in downtown Enterprise.
Years ago, my property management business included leasing and general oversight of the The Rawls Building. I had heard many of these stories. So when the police called my house in the middle of the night because they found a door unlocked it was my job to secure the building. I would get up, get dressed and head on over but I did not want to go in by myself. But onward I would go up the stairs, down the halls and check out the building and hoping I would not run upon any strange phenomenon. Music, children laughing, I could hear it if I thought about it so I just tried not to think about it at 2 o'clock in the morning.
One night the strange phenomenon appeared and turned out to be a B & B guest that was so smashed that he couldn't get his key to work and found himself locked out of the building and when the police called I went down to unlock the door to the B & B wing. I want you to know that the police officer left me there with a drunk. Oh my gosh! I guess the officer figured that the guy was so drunk that I had nothing to worry about. I promise you that I was never left by myself again! Do you need the number to the Chief of Police? Oh yeah, it's funny now! I am sure I wasn't left there deliberately but none the less.
