Discover the most haunted hotels in Medora with real ghost stories and paranormal activity

301 3rd Ave, Medora, ND 58645, United States
It was originally christened ‘The Metropolitan’, but when the community of Medora failed to grow as expected the name no longer seemed appropriate and in 1903 it was changed to The Rough Riders Hotel, in honor of Theodore Roosevelt’s Rough Riders who served in the Spanish-American war. This seems fitting given that Theodore Roosevelt was the very first United States President to pay a visit to Medora! It is said that there is the restless spirit of a little boy haunting one of the rooms on the uppermost floor of the hotel. Many guests have reported hearing his disembodied laughter and he is also said to enjoy flushing toilets when nobody is around as well! There has been no luck in identifying this little ghost boy or explaining why he is hanging around the hotel.
