The Marshall House, in one of the most haunted cities in the United States, was built in 1851. Ten years later, the American Civil War erupted, and the hotel was used as a hospital. It would be used as a hospital twice more, during epidemics of yellow fever. It is, perhaps, the former patients and nurses who form the hotel's ghostly crew.
Ghosts have been sighted by staff and guests alike - in the foyer, in the hallways. One guest heard the doorknob on the door to his room rattling, only to find no one there. Sounds of children romping through the halls early in the morning are heard, when there are no children in the hotel. A bathtub faucet has been turned on when nobody was in the bathroom.
One of the most intriguing reports is that some guests have felt someone holding their wrist, as if a nurse were taking their pulse.
