The Girl in Room 522

By Richard Havens

Because Tom King's flight was late, his hotel cancels his reservation. However, they send him to an old hotel on skid row that has room for him. The room is not to be rented by order of the owner, an aging crime lord, but a drunk room clerk rents it anyway.

Tom is awakened by the ghost of a beautiful woman dressed in 1920s-style clothing and witnesses her murder. At first frightened, he becomes intrigued by her and decides to find out all he can. But the crime lord, who loves the woman, orders Tom to be killed.
