The Olde Park Hotel

Not your typical Hotel But if you are looking for a haunted historical building this place is awesome. We went to go do a tour during the day with the whole family and we had a blast. The building is half hotel and half living museum. The rooms are very nice and clean and the owners are very knowledgeable and kind d to their guests. If you are into the paranormal the night time investigations sounds amazing with an HQ nerve center and equipment supplied. But for the daytime tour that we did, we were not disappointed. We ended up walking around the building for two hours with emf detectors that the owners supplied. And we did not go longer than 5 minutes with out some type of paranormal events happening, emf readings, noises, shadow figures, furniture moving, voices, physical touch, and orbs. All during the daylight hours between 3pm and 5pm. We will definitely be going back for more investigations especially an overnight one!!!!

You will totally enjoy being here! Ghost hunters in a historical building...LET'S GO!

I recently visited here August 24th 2024 for an overnight investigation and I must say this place is definitely haunted. Before we even began our investigation or even setting up our equipment , we heard weird sounds, footsteps, knocks and just an overall feeling of being watched and followed. Dan gave us the rundown on what all was accessible to us and then the tour and history of the place. After we did the tour we went about our way picking our rooms and deciding where we wanted to set up certain equipment and which items like motion activated lights or motion activated sound items to put in the areas we knew it would definitely trigger the most. I sat on my own adventure while the other two did the things they needed to do and I must say, even before it got dark I caught footsteps following me, breathing down my neck, deep heavy feeling of not being wanted, a deep growling sound and tugged from behind on my shirt. As it got dark, Dan was nice enough to do a spirit box session with us that most definitely brought all the spirits out to play. The voices that came through was insane, the answers we got when would we ask questions were so accurately answered it definitely made the hairs on my entire body stand up. He also was amazing enough to do a seance session with us and our EMFs were going crazy. The Para Light was going so high we all had a very eerie feeling, we felt heaviness in the room, footsteps outside the room, a scream, our motion triggered balls were lighting up like crazy in the doorway and the hallway. A dark shadow appeared in the doorway that one of the people I came with was so terrified he said he felt as if he was being held down in his chair. There were crying sounds that sounded so clear it’s as if the woman was standing right next to us. Dan went about his was and headed into his room and us 3 started our investigation. Dan has a room called “The Box” which is a mixture of the Estes method and his own where you put on blacked out googles with light flashing and headphones you put on that are totally noise canceling and a spirit box in a small dark room. No one but me would do it first. This has got to be the most disturbing part of my investigation. Not only was I in total darkness in a room, I was all alone on the 2nd floor as the other 2 were downstairs watching everything. I began my session and not even 3 minutes later there was loud footsteps, banging on the door and mind you I’m wearing noise cancelling headphone and I was grabbed on my right arm so tightly as if someone was telling me to get up or get out that I threw off my equipment and ran the heck out so fast and did not look back. Another encounter in the doll room I had was I had told Jolita one of the haunted dolls who is in a glass case to let me know she knew I was there in some way that when I came back I would know either something was off or changed and that I was going to come later to investigate the room more in depth. I came back about 20-30 minutes later and her head was turned a different direction. Trust me I had so many more experiences like knocking on my door, seeing movement outside my door, part of a leg/foot running away as I opened my door to my room BUT a hard shove out of a room that clearly didn’t want me there. From door opening and voices telling me to leave now, I would definitely recommend you visit this place and experience what we did. Like I said so much more happened that was totally insane I will definitely be back. Thank you Dan for the most amazing experience I have ever encountered.

This is one of my favorite places to go. You can rent the entire building for a fair price and its clean! The new owners are very accommodating. I am definitely looking forward to many more visits!

The owners Connie and Dan Lafave are great hosts! They are making strides to provide an out of this world experience for those interested in studying the paranormal! They have several rooms that are complete with period furniture, if you are brave enough you can sleep in one of the many themed rooms! The price to investigate this truly haunted location is very reasonable as you get the whole hotel to yourself! No two nights are the same and it is very active! I have always gotten great evidence every time I have stayed here. If you are brave enough stay the night and get to know the spirits who never checked out of the Olde Park Hotel or you may be lucky enough to see one of the many haunted objects move Run don't walk to book your time at the Olde Park Hotel

This place is amazing. I love how the owners interact and help the guests with all ghost hunting needs. They set us up with equipment and lead a guided tour of the hotel. They even gave free reign of their equipment and space after they turned in for the night. The owners also make soap and other essentials, they smell wonderful and are definitely worth the purchase.

Olde Park Hotel is the #1 Paranormal place in Texas. Put this place on your Bucket list and don't die until you go . You will never experience Paranormal events like you will here. For those who don't believe , you will by the time you leave, and those who do believe you won't be disappointed.. So come prepared for an experience of a life time...

I want to say I host two nights Nov 1 to 3rd definitely worth it for our 12 Deaf group from several states to explore many rooms and it does responded to our equipments. My group kept saying its awesome experience to stay two nights and we provided some snacks and waters. There was plenty room to choose. Some of them do change room on 2nd night to experience each night. The owner Connie was awesome she knows some signs and hey remember "Happy Birthday" laughing. It's between us our code of communication. Once again Thank you so much We would love come back near future.
