The ghost in Villanueva de los Infantes.

Villanueva de los Infantes is a town in the Spanish province of Ciudad Real. There, there is a hotel where two ghosts are living. The name of the hotel: "La morada del Comendador". Some clients say that in one of the rooms, at three o'clock in the night, there are strange noises; concretly, a marble bouncing on the floor of the room. When you switch on the light, you don't see anything. But when you switch off again, the marble starts to bounce again, as if it were very next to you.

People also say that they feel sudden changes of temperature.

And finally, one of the clients swears that he saw, in front of his bed, a terrifying phantom with moustache and beard, and fierce eyes, looking at him quietly. He also saw a woman with a long plait. She was crying.
