With the woman’s direction, the young man made his way to the left and saw the narrow wooden staircase leading to the second floor.
As he began to ascend the stairs, a musty smell overwhelmed him, an odor that represented the age of the building.
“I walked up the staircase, and for a fleeting moment, I had this thought that if I was filming a horror movie, this would be the best location.
The steps would creek and sometimes a plume of dust would come up,” Wes said.
Once he made his way up to the landing, he began to explore a few rooms toward the front of the building’s second floor, but nothing caught his interest; thus, he started walking down the hall toward the back rooms.
Midway down the hall, Wes noticed the opened windows with see-through curtains covering them, but he couldn’t shake the chill of the dark hallway.
“It was almost like I had to squint just to kind of see, even though sunlight was pouring through the rooms,” Wes explained..
As the young man makes his way from room to room looking at things, he heard what sounded like boot steps.
“My first thought is I’m in an old building, so my mind’s playing tricks on me; I didn’t give it much thought,” stated Wes.
“As I kept walking down the hallway, however, the boot steps became more pronounced, more belligerent.
They were coming from the rooms I had just been in.”.
At first, Wes thought maybe the owner’s husband decided to check on him.
After all, the man had glared at him, so maybe he wanted to make sure the college student wasn’t stealing or vandalizing something.
Or, maybe the couple had a housekeeper to help keep the more than 40-room building tidy.
However, as Wes started to scope out another room, he got a distinct feeling someone was watching him.
The hair on the back of his neck slowly started to rise and he felt a presence.
He knew at that point he wasn't alone.
Regardless, the antique shop/hotel has lots of history, and the building has had many functions, including a place where Ballinger residents used to drink and gamble during prohibition.
For Jeanette, however, it’s the place that defines her family.
She gets to walk through the rooms where her great grandmother and great grandfather slept.
Her mother was also born in that hotel.
Unfortunately for the older woman, Jeanette has lost many of her family members, including her parents, husband, aunts, best friend and more.
However, the spirits of those family members, along with the spirits of many other people inhabit the once old Ballinger hotel, so Wes’ experience 15 years ago wasn’t unique.
In fact, many people over the years have visited the hotel because they heard of the many sightings there.
Sightings that continue to happen every day for Jeanette.
“Sometimes it will be 8 or 10 in a week; sometimes it will just be one, but it’s very active,” she said about the spirits who inhabit the hotel.
“They’re in and out.” Additionally, the stern man Wes met those years ago, Jeanette’s father, still roams the hotel even though he’s passed on.
However, like Jeanette’s father, there are a few spirits who keep Jeanette company day and night.
First, there’s Glen.
Glen lives in the closet in one of the rooms on the bottom floor.
Then there’s Cowboy, the man most people see.
Jeanette described the cowboy as younger, taller than 6 feet, slim, and he wears a cowboy hat, a handkerchief and a long coat.
He has boots and spurs, and people see him mostly around the lower part of the stairs.
“He’s up and down, up and down, and people will see him from outside,” explained Jeanette.
Uncle Spike lives in the room close to the door that faces the courtyard.
Uncle Spike was one of the previous owners, so when Jeanette's mom mentioned an owner, it's possible that's who Wes saw all those years ago.
Many people have seen Uncle Spike.
However, there are many spirit residents, and they show themselves often to Jeanette.
“In the evenings, as I’m turning off the lights, you can see…it’s amazing…it’s like clouds just going whoosh, whoosh, whoosh,” described Jeanette.
“In the evening, you can see them better because there’s not a window in the back.
You can see fog, and there will be like eight of them, or more sometimes.” Then there are the girls, Marjorie and Margaret who live downstairs in the last room on the left.
One day, Jeanette was working at her flower shop in the Bastrop, Texas area when she got a call from a woman wanting to look at her antiques.
“I’m here at your store,” the woman told Jeanette, “but your employee won’t let me in.”.
“Employee? I don’t have an employee,” Jeanette told the woman..
“You don’t? Well, I’m looking right at her.
She looks like she’d work here with her dated clothes,” the woman proclaimed.
It's possible the woman was looking at either Marjorie or Margaret.
