It was a dark and stormy night…

not really, it was the middle of the day and sun was brightly shining everywhere but storm clouds only gathered over the Stanley Hotel, in Estes Park, Colorado. If you are not familiar with the Stanley Hotel, think of The Shining, by Stephen King. Known as one of the most haunted hotels in the United States, I am fortunate enough to live close by and visit whenever I can. I have even stayed a weekend in this very haunted hotel and had an experience myself.  So, for my JNW’s Halloween Challenge: Ghost I serve you up this photo taken just yesterday, October 1, 2016 on my last visit.  The dark storm clouds were only over the hotel, were the spirits getting ready for Halloween, my favorite time of the year?

    So lucky to live close by so you can visit. I’ve heard of this place. Those storm clouds do look ominous. 🙂
