The Kelley Hotel in upstate New York has a famous haunting history. They've been known for people to go missing. One night, back in 1822, is where it all began. (Examples.yourdictionary.com) Velma Brown left her family right before the holidays because she couldn't afford gifts for them. She left town to get a fresh start on living a better life for herself. She took a train from Portland, Maine (history.com) to Ticonderoga, New York. She found the Kelley Hotel off to the right side of the train station. It was an eerie hotel but it was the closest one nearby so she took what she could get. All night she kept hearing strange noises and and smelling weird smells. Velma awoke at 3am to something grabbing her leg. That was the last time we heard from Velma Brown. Oh also, Velma was in room 22.
So so the myth goes; if you go to the Kelley Hotel right after Christmas time all alone, the last thing you'll remember is seeing 3am on that clock, in room 22 of course.
Endnotes: This myth just ties together the whole situation. Sandy wasn't aware of the myth with this hotel considering she isn't from around the town of Ticonderoga, New York. Unfortunately due to her ignorance she is now missing. I used history.com to help with some of my research. I wasn't sure when the state of Maine was established or when railroads were invented. I used that information to set the date of the myth so that it could be historically correct.
