Lord Milner Hotel – South Africa
Nearest city: Matjiesfontein, Western Cape

The Lord Milner Hotel’s resident-haunting lore is unusually name-driven, led by “Lucy”—a pale figure in a negligee said to drift along the passages and stairs and to have “never checked out” of her first-floor room. A second presence, “Kate,” is remembered as a young nurse, with repeated reports of card-shuffling sounds and a door rattling at the top of the stairs, while “The Lady in White” is linked to sightings of a woman in a long white dress moving through the garden after dark. Guests also describe thuds in distant rooms, doorknobs testing, faint laughter, and the clink of glasses.
