The Ghost of the Brown Hotel

Rising sixteen stories above downtown Louisville, the historic Brown Hotel is a monument to Roaring Twenties glamour, catastrophic floods, and enduring legends—built atop the ground of a horrific 1895 artillery explosion. Founded in 1923 by lumber baron James Graham Brown, the grand landmark survived the Great Depression and the 1937 flood, but staff and guests insist Brown never truly checked out after his 1969 death. Phantom footsteps still pace his former 15th-floor penthouse, elevators ride uncalled to the top floor, cigar smoke drifts through non-smoking halls, and the ghost of his beloved dog Weezums barks in empty corridors. In this episode of Southern Ghost Stories, Allen Sircy steps inside one of Louisville’s most haunted hotels to uncover the rich history and the founder who still keeps watch over his guests.
