    About this ebook

    “Welcome to the Pleasant Stay Hotel! We promise to make your stay a wonderful and memorable experience!”

    ...but it’s a lie.

    Something’s wrong with the hotel. Something bad. Strange noises echo throughout its narrow halls. Weird smells fill the air like a fog and strange guests call the place home.

    But Mason Phelt doesn’t mind working there. It pays the bills so he’s happy to overlook the unsettling things he encounters during the overnight shift.

    Guests who walk around wearing Halloween masks? No problem.

    A floor that reeks of wet cats? Easy to ignore.

    But it all changes when he brings something back from the hotel to his apartment. That’s when the nightmare begins...

    Nothing is ever the same again as he questions everything about the hotel and the people who wanders its corridors. Can he solve the mystery of the Pleasant Stay Hotel? Or will it devour him before he can find answers?

    For fans of horror, creepypasta, and the unsettling this story takes inspiration from Jack Townsend’s "Tales from the Gas Station" and Bentley Little’s "The Resort".
