History of the Lord Baltimore Hotel
Listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places, the Lord Baltimore Hotel has been a cherished member of Historic Hotels of America since 2005.
The French Renaissance-style hotel was designed by William Lee Stoddart and opened its doors on December 30th, 1928. At 289 feet in height, the hotel was the tallest building in all of Maryland. The building is 22 stories high and features a tower with a sky parlor roof of copper that has aged with a green tarnish over the years. The hotel is noteworthy for voluntarily lifting its racially restrictive guest policies in 1958 when the house failed to pass a bill prohibiting racial segregation in public accommodations.
Designed using a brilliant blend of the Beaux-Arts—with elements of the Italian and French Renaissance architecture—the magnificent hotel was nearly three times as large as its predecessor. At the time, it even dominated the local skyline as Maryland’s largest building and remains a defining chapter in the history of Lord Baltimore Hotel.
The haunted history of the Lord Baltimore Hotel is filled with chilling tales. Guests often report unusual phenomena, such as flickering lights, cold spots, and unexplained sounds echoing through the hallways.
Over the years, the hotel’s ghostly reputation has attracted paranormal enthusiasts and skeptics alike, making it a popular stop for ghost tours and a subject of numerous investigations. Some of the Stock Market Crash jumpers did happen at Lord Baltimore Hotel, where they are all documented. Many believe their spirits stayed at the hotel. They haunt the halls and intermingle with the staff and guests. Little Molly is said to be the daughter of a pair of suicidal parents and many guests claim that the little girl is seen around the hotel. Particularly on the 19th floor, which is said to be where the guests had stayed.
Molly is seen wearing a cream-colored dress and black shoes, and in all accounts, she is accompanied by a red ball. She is seen playing with the ball and is keen on chasing staff members and guests to the point that two hotel employees resigned because of it.
It is also said that the voice and crying of a young girl are heard throughout the hotel. Some believe it could be Molly who is lost and looking for her parents. Staff believes that two formally dressed figures appear to be dancing around the ballroom: the young couple – Molly’s parents.
