Opened in 1906 by John Jacob Astor IV, the Knickerbocker Hotel was once the height of New York luxury, hosting celebrities, tycoons, and artists in the heart of Times Square. But its history is also marked by jewel heists, strange scandals, and enduring ghost stories. In this episode, we uncover the hotel’s glamorous rise, mysterious decline, and the hauntings said to linger within its walls.
