Season 5, Episode 5: The Gunter Hotel: The Mysterious Murder and  Haunting of Room 636

Did you know San Antonio, TX is one of the most haunted cities in America? A hotel would not be complete without a ghost story attached to its history. The story goes that in February of 1965, a young man named Walter Emerick checked into the Gunter Hotel with a lovely young lady. Two days later Emerick committed one of the most horrific crimes in San Antonio’s history. In room 636 at the Sheraton Gunter Hotel, Emerick murdered and butchered the woman,  whose identity has yet to be discovered.  Police received tips that Emerick had killed the woman, and they swarmed to capture him. But before they could reach him, Emerick took his own life with a revolver. Since then, it seems that the energy from that fateful night continues to replay repeatedly. However, that's not the only paranormal activity reported at the location. Visitors claim sightings of two Flapper girls, who seem to be in a heated argument and the haunting sounds of jazz music reportedly played by legendary blues artist Robert Johnson.
