Holiday Inn Sunspree Resort

: "TOWER - First, in room 471, in the summer of 1999, a businessman was out of town staying in this room.  He was walking around the pool (next to this room) for most of the evening and into the night hours.  When the pool closed a maintenance man told him that he would have to leave the pool was closed.  This is the last anyone would see of this gentleman because, the next day when he was supposed to check out and did not, a maid went to the room to check things out.  Upon walking into the room, she found the man had committed suicide with a 357.  He had also left a $3.57 tip on the table.  Many have claimed to see a shadow walking around the pool at night in the windows of the rooms around the pool.  Next, in the early 1980''s, a boy scout group had rented the entire 7th. Floor of the building.  This is hard to accurately describe, since no one who was working there at the time cares to elaborate on any details from this event, but all that was gathered is that the boy scout leader had apparently gone crazy and killed some of the scouts before being caught.  When the building was closed for the winter one year (Gatlinburg is a tourist town which is really only full for the summer and autumn months) an employee was making rounds through the building and stopped on the 7 th. Floor and heard running and screams he ran to check for intruders only to find nothing, no rooms were rented in the Tower that evening."


Holiday Inn Sunspree Resort 's HOLIDOME

: "413 - in the front of the complex outside, in the late 1970''s two young girls were staying there for the night.  They went downtown and picked up a guy from a local bar and brought him back to their room.  While the other girl was out smoking, the guy drowned her female friend in the bathtub and put her body under the bed.  Then while leaving he went down the back stairwell outside beside the kitchen and found the other girl smoking, then he proceeded to strangle her as well, and drug her body to the roof of the building (then easily accessible).  Maids over the years have reported hearing noises from the bathroom and objects in the room moving from one place to another, while cleaning the room."
