Broadalbin Hotel

Paranormal accounts link the venue's haunted reputation to two potential historical sources: the Keeley Cure Hospital's controversial medical practices and unidentified soldiers present during wartime occupation. Guests and overnight visitors report consistent phenomena including sensations of weight settling on beds as if another person has sat down, spontaneous activation of lights and electrical equipment, and visual encounters with figures dressed in military uniforms walking hallways and positioned at the top of staircases. Recent incidents include objects moving autonomously—notably, a lamp that stood undisturbed for five years suddenly falling as if pushed by an invisible force. Multiple witnesses independently describe a persistent presence in specific areas, particularly the guest rooms and stairwell. Whether these phenomena stem from residual impressions of past medical procedures, wartime occupation, or the deaths associated with the hospital's questionable treatments remains subject to interpretation among paranormal investigators and local residents.
