Syracuse, NY

I stayed at The Comfort Inn in Syracuse (Thompson Rd), NY last month (September 2002)...room 119.I was awoken around 3 am and saw something floating near the end of my bed.Thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, so went back to sleep.A little while later, I was awoken again.I saw 2 green loops going from floor to ceiling with a lot of bright sparkles coming out of it.Thought I was really tired, and went back to sleep.A short time later, I woke up and a man was right next to me, staring at me.He looked like he was from a different era...maybe the 1920's.He looked like he had been working outside.I stared at him, and he dissolved right then and there. I must have passed out, because I don't remember anything else...and forgot all about it until later the next day. When I got home, I looked on the internet, and I found out that there was a rock mine explosion there in 1918.50 men where killed, 15 never found.Others have claimed to seegreen lights in the area of the mine.I called the hotel and asked if anyone else had reported anything odd happening at the hotel.The clerk said co-workers who stay overnight sometimes report that "someone was in my room last night".The night manager said that around 3 or 4 am, the elevators go crazy, up and down and open and close, and there's no one on them.My theory is that it is one of the unfound men.He looked harmless enough and the hotel was really nice, but I'm never staying there again.
