The notoriously haunted Crescent Hotel is not only a staple of Eureka Springs, but of Arkansas in general. Did you know that a quack, self-proclaimed doctor named Norman Baker scammed hundreds of dying cancer patients into coming from all over the world, only to end up being slowly poisoned? The Crescent was the playground for these events, and it’s said that to this day you may get to meet the awakened souls of those who were doomed to perish at the hands of Baker. Also, there may or may not be a ghost cat rolled up into the mix somewhere… in any case, find out the story here as Trey Youngdahl chronicles this Unnatural Act in the Natural State!
