Haunted legends of the Bowry Hotel

Perhaps the most celebrated legend associated with the Bowry Hotel turns around his elevators. Both guests and employees reported strange events related to the lifts, especially during one in the morning.

According to the stories of the elevator, often crazy – scratchy open and closing without a reason, the buttons randomly lithe up, and sometimes even stop between the floors. This phenomenon was attributed to the resident of the Poltergeists Hotel, mischievous ghosts that seem to enjoy the disturbance of the hotel's night peace.

One popular theory suggests that these ghosts are attached to the location of the hotel, which has a long and multi -story past. The location was not always so elegant, because Lower East Side was one of the poorest places in the city. The Bowery district was once a home for theaters, flophouses and mezpesia, places where the feast often ended in a tragedy. Even when it was built, he was next to the Salvation Army Hostel and the Metadon Clinic. Some believe that the ghosts of those who met premature ends in the area found a recent house in the hotel, bringing with them chaos and anxieties of their previous life.

The hotel is also located next to the marble cemetery in New York, and many believe that ghostly events come from ghosts persisting in the cemetery and going to the hotel.
