Friday November 3rd, 2006 Jennifer and I attended a murder mystery in Guthrie, Ok at the Stone Lion Inn. The Stone Lion Inn is also a bed and breakfast.
"Foul play is afoot. Guests walk the halls, their inquisitive minds trained of finding a murderer. Of course, it's all a game, right? They signed up for a murder mystery weekend in and old historic inn. Tensions are high, but the stakes aren't real. But then, who was the little girl, lurking on the third floor, one moment there and the next gone? Or the older gentleman in period dress in the basement? Surely they are nothing more than hired actors. No, say the employees. They are residents of the inn since long before it started taking boarders. One steeped in tragedy, the other in pain, they remain within, startling guests while making their presence known.
If there is one thing that paranormal investigators can agree on, it is this: The past is never truly past. If it were, there would be nothing to investigate. Within the walls of a stately inn, history is remembered not just by the staff, but by those who played a part. Certain buildings retain their memories in the form of memorabilia, relics of the past that present day owners find quaint or fascinating. Others by taking pride in that past. Still others find a different way to remember, as the souls of those who walked before dwell within, a reminder of days gone by."
