Fun Fact Friday — Spooky Edition!

Did you know Bonnie & Clyde once hid out in Suite 305 of the historic Stockyards Hotel in Fort Worth?

In 1933, the outlaw duo checked in while on the run… and some say they never really checked out. Guests still report faucets turning on by themselves, TVs switching on at 3 a.m., and ghostly footsteps in the empty halls. One of Tarrant County’s most haunted (and historic) spots!
