Location Description:         
 

During the early 1900s a young girl named Kate stayed at the castle, after it was turned into a bed and breakfast. When she heard the news that her fiancé had been lost at sea the committed suicide and jumped from her third floor room, 306. It is said that singing can be heard from the bathroom at night. Also the heat goes through many changes as if she is changing the heat herself. There is a broken clock that chimes. A book was once left in the room so that guests could record their experiences, but was taken out because it scared guests so much they asked for a room change. But Kate is a friendly ghost and there is said to be a portrait of her hanging in the lounge and the back wall. Numerous apparitions have been seen in the castle. One Visitor took a picture in the room they where staying and there was clearly an image of a woman staring out the window towards the ocean. She was clothed in late 1800`s attire with a bonnet. It is also rumored that a monk hung himself in the attic. Lights go on and off by themselves, doors open and close in the same fashion. Was featured on the television show "Sightings". True ghost hunters will agree it is well worth a night`s stay to truly see evidence of the supernatural. Open to the public, reasonably priced. Good restaurant.

This is common in many haunts. Siging and knockings are usually heard in cases such as htis. The same hting happens at the hotel del coronado too.

I`ve stayed, and investigated at the Manresa on several occassions. One night during my three night stay there, I actually was very ill. Not due to my stay, I just was. Meanwhile, I wanted nothing to do but stay in my room and rest. Well, little of that going on...my window kept opening on it`s own. I would get up, close it, lock it, climb in bed to rest. Before I could lay my head back on the pillow, it would be open again. I said, `forget it you win, you can have the damn window open!`. I eventually checked out because I was to darn cold (it was winter, and there was a lot of wind, and it was supposed to snow-it didn`t) and getting sicker. Do you know, before I left, the damn window finally closed-on it`s own.
I`ve been back numerous times and love the Manresa, never have I had another experience quite like that again. However, there have been some noteable ones though. Definitely worth it!
