Lottie from Detroit

Hotel del Coronado ghost tour

Saturday, October 1, 2022

"Kate Morgan, a pretty young woman in her mid-twenties, checked into the hotel alone under the name “Lottie A Bernard” from Detroit. Five days later, on November 29, Kate was found dead on a hotel exterior staircase leading to the beach. She had a gunshot wound to the head, which the San Diego County coroner later determined to be self-inflicted (some skepticism still surrounds this finding)."

$39.95 - Learn the truth of the matter from the man who wrote the tour, Charles Spratley from Illusions of the Past. We'll congregate at the Hotel's Museum

~ Suggested dress - Spooky! ~
