Just came across your site while looking for St. Anne's and I had to tell you my story.

My mother and I were guests at the spa four years ago. After a wonderful day of treatments, we were getting ready for dinner. I went into the bathroom and when I came out a few minutes later, I found my mother trapped in a giant wooden armoire that had "flown" off the wall and encased her between a couch and the floor.

My mother is a very petite woman who couldn't possibly wrench a 5 foot wide, 8 foot tall, 600+ pound piece of furniture from where it stood, simply by taking a jacket off a hanger, which is what she had been doing. Without thinking about what I was doing, I lifted the armoire up and put it back against the wall!

Although shaken, my mother was not the least bit hurt, she had in fact fit perfectly in the space inside - which is quite remarkable considering there was about an inch of space around her on either side. She said that it felt as though the armoire had lifted up and gently cradled her inside.

We called the front desk and a handy man showed up promptly. When I jokingly asked him about ghosts in the room he got quite pale and later, the owner came by to tell us that there had been visits in our room before, but all quite playful. We didn't feel threatened by the presence, and went on to enjoy our weekend and slept very well.

Still, when I think back to the experience, and how my mother was carefully pushed into the safe recess of the armoire, and how I simply picked it up afterwards, well, there's no doubt in my mind that we were not alone.

And yes, like many others, I do plan on returning!

Our thanks to the witness and her mother for sharing this report with us. - Sue Darroch - Director
