Granite, Ghosts, and Grandeur: The History of the Grove Park Inn

In this episode of Tales, Trails, and Taverns, Joe takes Rob—and all of you—on a journey to one of North Carolina’s most iconic and allegedly haunted landmarks: the Omni Grove Park Inn. Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, this grand stone resort has hosted presidents, celebrities, authors, and yes... spirits.
Joe describes what it’s like to walk through the massive granite halls of the century-old inn, from the roaring fireplaces to the shadowy corners where stories still whisper. We dive into the fascinating history of its construction in 1913, its role during wartime, and the long list of famous guests who’ve passed through its doors.
But things take a spooky turn as Joe shares tales of the infamous “Pink Lady,” the spirit said to haunt the halls near Room 545. Whether it's lights flickering, cold spots, or guests waking in the night with the sense of being watched, the Grove Park Inn has no shortage of eerie encounters. Grab a drink, settle in by the fire, and join us as we explore the luxurious—and possibly haunted—past of the Omni Grove Park Inn.
