KALAMUNDA HOTEL, KALAMUNDA, WA

-

Glowing lights, unexplaine­d chills and floating voices are commonplac­e occurrence­s at this spooky heritage-listed stay. Located 30 minutes from the Perth CBD, the hotel was built by 1920s racing identity Patrick “Paddy” Connolly, who was also known for being quite the ladies’ man. Room 24 is reportedly now inhabited by the ghost of a young woman who was seduced by Paddy, left pregnant and broken-hearted and ultimately plunged to her death from the hotel’s back balcony. Other ghosts include a happy and mischievou­s young girl carrying a life-sized rag doll, a beautiful woman in her 30s wearing a white highcollar­ed Victorian-era dress and an angry older man with a handlebar moustache.
