Apart from the general wave of approval for the first playing of Frank Zappa's Peaches En Regalia on the Tom Morton Show (courtesy of author , whose choice it was) this tale from Murray Nix fairly took the biscuit when it came to strange things found in hotel rooms...
Working a few years back for Bass Hotels and Resorts at the EMEA HQ (Holiday Inn, Crowne Plaza, Intercontinental Hotels, etc.) I heard many a tale through our Guest Relations department aka Complaints.A couple booked into their room in a Florida Holiday Inn and soon were on the phone to the lobby complaining about the Gawd-awful smell in the room. Duty manager and Head of housekeeping appeared and concurred. The couple were sent off to the hotel's bar for some complimentary refreshments whilst the room was 'sanitised'. Couple returned to the freshened room and about an hour later recalled the lobby with the same complaint - the smell. Further investigation discovered a murdered body slowly decaying under one of the beds!
