There used to be a tradition of people telling scary ghost stories during Christmas, so Bethany is telling you one (or a hotel full) this week! The Hotel Monte Vista has a long history of deaths in the hotel and ghosts reportedly abound. But what’s the scariest thing about the hotel? You may be surprised…. Then, Kathleen was inspired by a sweet lab named Bailey who turns out to be AMAZING at sniffing out missing people and items! She’s talking about other bizarrely useful skills and equally bizarre jobs. (Would you watch paint dry for a living?)
