A group of friends explored an abandoned and reportedly haunted hotel late at night. While splitting up into smaller groups to investigate different areas of the dark hotel, one member of the group saw a dim flashlight sitting alone in an empty room at the end of a hallway. Their other friends did not see it at first and thought they were trying to scare them. When they got closer, the others also saw the flashlight but began to feel paranoid, creating stories that a ghost had left it behind. The person who first saw it decided to leave the flashlight where it was, feeling it was better not to take anything from the haunted location due to superstitions about ghosts potentially following objects home.
