The Hotel Del Coronado, was completed in 1888 was and still is a showcase of
opulent
Located at the western most periphery of San Diego Bay, its tall spirals and
stately countenance can make a person take a respite when first viewing it .
In the last nine years it has undergone extensive renovation, which has
enhanced it magnificence with the installation of updated convinces. Even
still it hold on to its old world charm, which attracted the only the most
noted celebrities the likes of King Edward VIII, Marilyn Monroe Charles
Lindbergh and so many others .
On a November day during the Thankgiving holidays in 1892, a well dressed
woman registered at the Hotel Del Coronado and was shown up to room 3312.
Her name was Kate Morgan and she was there to meet her husband. Their
marriage was not going will and even so, she had become pregnant and this
meeting at the hotel was an effort on her part to rectify the estrangement
between her and her husband. But reconciliation was not to be, her husband
did not meet with her. Sometime after the time that Kate Morgan had hoped to
meet with her husband, she was found dead on the beach which is adjacent to
the hotel from a bullet wound to the head. The incidence was declared a
suicide by the authorities, but soon after the rumors started to the
contrary and persist to this day.
Allege to be haunted by Kate Morgan, is room 3312 and room 3205 have been
over the years associated with paranormal phenomenon . The billowing of the
curtains with the windows closed and unexplained noises have been reported by
staff and guests.
Does Kate Morgan walk the Hotel Del Coronado ? Has she made rooms 3312 and
3205 her home? Maybe the rumors were right it was not a suicide ? And what
about the children do they become lost souls also? Maybe it her child that
haunts the Hotel Del Coronado ?
