The Legend of the Waldorf Estate
For years, people believed they knew the story of Oliver Sommersby. They spoke of the murderer who ruled the Waldorf Hotel, the monster who stole countless lives before meeting his own bloody end. They whispered that his spirit still haunted these halls, forever commanding the restless souls trapped within.
But legends have a way of changing…
For decades, the Bellhop faithfully collected souls for Oliver. Every scream, every death, every lost guest fed Oliver’s power. But the Bellhop learned something Oliver never intended him to know: every soul passed through his hands first.
Over the years, he secretly kept pieces of those souls for himself.
Eventually, the Bellhop became stronger than his master.
On a night no one remembers, the Bellhop dragged Oliver into the depths beneath the hotel and locked him in the place where he had once stood, trapped between life and death. Now, Oliver pounds against the walls of his prison, begging guests for help while the Bellhop reigns over the Waldorf Hotel.
Meet the Staff
The Bellhop
The Bellhop is one of the oldest entities that lurks within the shadows of the Waldorf. Wallace was a clean-cut young man fresh out of college when he began working at the hotel. Eventually, he grew close to the mysterious owner of the house, Oliver. Their closeness would prove fatal when Wallace stumbled upon the wicked secrets that lie in the dreaded basement. Oliver influenced the bellhop to kill. In the twilight hours on October 12, 1956, Wallace took a rubber mallet from the utility closet near the lobby, crept up to the second floor, and bludgeoned a husband and wife to death. In a frenzied bloodlust, the Bellhop pursued 3 other guests through the house, managing to kill a third in the bathroom. He was closing in on his remaining prey when Oliver emerged and plunged a blade deep into his abdomen. Shortly after, guests began to cry out about a ghastly figure harassing them in the night. The ghost of a clean-cut young man dressed in a bellhops outfit. Though it has been many years, the reports still persist to this day. Many have been proven to be false, and yet some…have no conclusive answer.
The Maid
Lilith, the head of housekeeping at the Waldorf, always prided herself on the sparkling clean hotel. But what people didn’t know is all her hard work was to learn the affection of the owner, her dearest Oliver. Oliver used this to his advantage, relying on her to clean up after his messes. One October evening Lilith decided to confess her love to Oliver and she soon discovered that he was capable of loving no one but himself! Devastated, she took her own life. It is said that Lilith still walks the halls making sure the hotel is sparkling clean trying to win the affection of her true love… Oliver.
The Chef
Shortly after Oliver opened the Waldorf he hired twin brother chefs, Edwin and Robert. Robert would help Oliver with his evil deeds and Edwin would try to save them from Oliver. One night inside the kitchen the brothers finally had enough of each other and started fighting until both lied unmoving and dead. Both brothers suffered brain damage and Robert’s face was bashed beyond repair. Oliver being the twisted mind he was used Edwin’s body as a vessel for both brothers’ brains. They are continually fighting for control of the one body they share now even in death.
The Librarian
Be quiet in the library… or you may feel the wrath of the Waldorf Hotel’s very own librarian. In her time at the Waldorf, she dealt with many loud obnoxious tourists. No matter how hard she tried, the guests just wouldn’t hold their tongues. In the night, after the tragedy that struck her employer, Oliver Sommersby, she suffered a heart attack due to all the overwhelming stress surrounding her job along with Oliver’s passing. Now she has all the time in the world to tell guests to shut their mouths… or she will shut it for you.
