Summary
Hey Spooky Squad! Welcome back to another episode of Scream and Sugar, your true crime coffee hour. Today, we’re checking into one of America’s most famously haunted hotels...the Hotel del Coronado in San Diego, and the mysterious death of the woman known as the “Beautiful Stranger,” Kate Morgan. In 1892, a young woman arrived alone at the grand seaside resort under the name Kate Morgan. For 5 days, she waited on the hotel’s veranda, telling staff she was expecting someone who never arrived. Just days later, her body was found on the steps leading to the beach. Authorities quickly ruled her death a suicide, but strange details surrounding her stay and the ghostly apparition that followed have kept her story alive for more than a century. In this episode, we unravel the history, the theories, and the haunting legacy of the Beautiful Stranger. Grab your coffee and your curiosity, and remember to stay spooky, y’all!
