Some hotels remember their guests. The Hotel Northstar refuses to let them go.
Eleven-year-old Emily Harrington arrives in Anchorage with her family expecting the beginning of an Alaskan adventure. Instead, the historic Hotel Northstar introduces them to impossible rooms, unsettling warnings, and a past that refuses to stay buried.
Then the boundary between hotel and sea begins to collapse.
A phantom vessel called the Northern Star reaches across impossible spaces, turning doors into thresholds and memories into dangerous territory. When people begin to vanish, Emily, her family, and a crew determined to protect them must learn the rules of a haunting that can distort reality and exploit one of the deepest human desires-the wish to hold on to the people we love.
Facts must be verified. Names must be remembered. Doors must be tested.
And when Emily is confronted with the ultimate promise of safety, she must decide whether keeping someone safe can become another form of keeping them captive.
Haunted Hospitality: Ghosts of the Hotel Northstar blends haunted-hotel Gothic, maritime ghost lore, psychological suspense, family bonds, and an Alaskan setting into a supernatural mystery about memory, grief, and knowing when to let go.
Some doors should remain closed.
