Menger Hotel - reported orb and light anomalies

The Menger Hotel, adjacent to the Alamo, has long been included in local ghost-tour narratives and media accounts that report sightings of unexplained orbs and light anomalies in rooms, stairwells, and public areas. Photographs and eyewitness reports of small glowing orbs at the hotel have been circulated by paranormal investigators and local news outlets. Skeptics and technical reviewers commonly cite reflections, insects, dust, and camera artifacts as alternative explanations, and the interpretations remain debated.
