Lou Williams didn’t stay with the Raptors in Oklahoma City during their recent three-game road swing.
When the team charter arrived at the Skirvin Hilton Hotel last weekend, he jumped in a cab and headed to a different place to stay the night.
No, it wasn’t a case of not wanting to associate with his teammates.
The veteran NBA guard just has a preference when it comes to hotels. He prefers one that isn’t haunted.
The Skirvin Hilton Hotel in Oklahoma City has that reputation in NBA circles. So, too, does the Pfister in Milwaukee.
Both are older hotels. The Skirvin was built in 1911. The Pfister predates even that, opening its doors in 1893.
The Skirvin is believed to be spooked by a former maid who had an affair with the hotel’s owner and became pregnant. As the story goes, in order to keep the affair a secret, the owner imprisoned her in a 10th-floor room, where she eventually gave birth and fell into a depression when, even after the birth, she was still denied her freedom.
As legend goes, the maid jumped to her death one day, taking the baby with her.
There have been multiple accounts over the years of men claiming to have been joined in the shower by a naked female or propositioned by a female voice while alone in their rooms.
