1970s california friends haunted hotel hotelcalifornia legend mystery

"You can check out anytime you like but you can never leave" - Hotel California by The Eagles 

I've actually wanted to write a story based on this line for awhile now and why not do it about a haunted hotel ? 

Incorporating some aspects of "The Haunting of Hill House" as well, like all those who die in the house, stay there forever

Also pulling architectural details from the Winchester Mystery House 

Inspiration includes Miss Peregrine's House for Peculiar Children 

Hotel is based off the Claremont Hotel in California 

Setting: a stand alone / massive hotel (only one building, but imagine a hotel similar to the one in the shining) spread across many acres. In (not a desert but an environment similar to a desert) in California.

Time period: 1970's 

Characters: Heather, age 24. Christine, age 26. Lori, age 23. 

Plot: 3 friends have heard this legend about a hotel in the middle of nowhere and decide to go and see if it is real or if it is really just a legend.All Rights Reserved

Get A Life | ONC2023 Shortlist by OnceUponASonder

While her best friend Cassidy snacks on brie and boys in France, Darcy Li-Quinn must face her last year of high school and the unpredictable wrath of her sister, Danica, alone. Darcy's plan for dealing with Danica and her heinous friends is simple-be invisible. But first, she's promised Cassidy she'll do 'one brave thing'. Mustering the courage to say 'hi' to the cute boy on the bus, Darcy expects rejection or indifference. She doesn't anticipate a grumpy ghost with unfinished business who needs her help. Suddenly, a quiet year of flying under the radar looks increasingly unlikely. *** Rationally, Hunter Viera knows that his brother's death wasn't his fault. But that doesn't stop his guilt about Archer invading his every thought or lessen the grief sitting heavy in his chest. Changing schools offers a fresh start, and Hunter's plan is simple-be invisible. But he hasn't counted on Darcy, or her ludicrous claim that Archer speaks to her from beyond the grave. Suddenly, a quiet year of sitting on the sidelines looks increasingly unlikely. *** This is a story about hearts and hope and public transport. This is Darcy and Hunter's story (and a little bit Archer's too). *** 'Get A Life' is my entry for Open Novella Contest 2023 and is inspired by the following prompts. 20. You finally build enough courage to talk to that cute someone you see every day on the bus. Their face turns dark as they respond "You shouldn't be able to see me." 9. There's an urban legend that's been circulating for years about a taxi cab that doesn't take you where you want to go, but where you need to go. One night, you stepped into this cab.

Quaint Days by itstheKayBee

I woke up. I was in an unknown place. I couldn't remember anything, so I started searching for clues to find my existence there. I headed towards the exit keeping in mind that I have to get out of there at any cost. I opened the door and looked behind to find I was in a hotel. 'Room number 707' as it read. I turn towards the neighbouring room. There was light peeping out of it. I wondered and looked inside through the keyhole. I saw some quaint things. Read to find out.

As they continued to walk along the floors the boards creaked.They heard so many scary stories about this place that a couple was murdered in room C3 on the third floor. A case never truly solved because no one had been able to set foot in that room. Izzy and her friends wanted to test this and see if this was really true. Izzy started to wander off from her friends in a different direction not realizing her and her friends have been separated. She was calling out for her friends "Tyler,Hannah,Justin!". As she is calling for them she is going deeper and deeper into this hotel. She keeps hearing faint whispers she says "Anyone there?" but no response.She receives a text on her phone from her friends that they are on the third floor waiting for her. She walks down a very dark hallway scattered with trash and the lights are flickering on and off. She comes to this elevator. Izzy entered the empty elevator and pushed the button for my floor. As the doors close I feel a hand cover my mouth.

Room 9C by OuijaMovie

It’s the middle of fall semester at Commonwealth University, and Cara Oliver is the resident assistant on the ninth floor of the Hynes Hall dormitory. Being an RA means she’s exempt from paying for her private room. Better yet, she earns a stipend in exchange for keeping the hallway clean, mediating roommate disputes, and suffering the advances of her boss, creepy middle-aged Mr. Flynn. It’s much better than having to find a part-time job on campus. And best of all, her boyfriend, is the RA for the tenth floor. But something strange is going on in 9C, the single room that’s occupied by deaf freshman Hailey Warwick. Cara learns that there are frequent odd noises in the room, and Hailey’s oblivious because she can’t hear them. Cara’s best friend, Leigh Anne, tells Cara that the rumor is that a kid died in Room 9C one year, and it’s haunted. She jokes that it’s either great planning on the part of the dorm’s general manager, Mr. Flynn, that there’s a deaf kid living in 9C that year. Something about Leigh Anne’s joke rings eerily true to Cara. Cara feels awful it’s taken her until October to realize Hailey might be in some kind of danger. Cara discovers one of the students who previously lived in 9C was committed to a psychiatric hospital the following year. Other years, students placed in room 9C dropped out of school mid-semester. She confronts Mr. Flynn about the room’s history, and he uncomfortably admits that back in the Eighties, a student committed suicide in the room, but assures her it was completely renovated. Now Leigh Anne is intrigued and suggests that they use her Ouija board to contact the dead kid. Cara is opposed to the idea, since she doesn’t want to freak her resident out. But Mason insists maybe they can communicate with the spirit and ask him to stop scaring nice girls. When he puts it that way, Cara agrees. But the spirit of the dead kid from Room 9C isn’t so easily convinced...
