Urban Legend Comes True: The Body Under the Mattress!

laughing uncontrolebly

OK, but the REAL question begged here is this:

Do the hotel cleaning staff people not have a sense of SMELL?? How can one clean a room and make the bed for days and not note the smell that the hotel guest can in the first few minutes?

For the record, I’m now going to check under EVERY SINGLE STINKIN’ (pun absolutely intended) MOTEL BED FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!!

This is just plain creepy.

I spent Thursday through Saturday night in a motel, so I think I’m glad I didn’t read this beforehand.

I guess the staff didn’t think to look under the mattress for a while. :stuck_out_tongue:

I wonder if the guy was face-up or face-down? It would be a lot creepier if the corpse was face-up and the motel guest slept on his tummy . . .

I don’t know. Back in my housekeeping days, if I were to smell an awful smell, I think I’d first check the toilet and the garbage, look under the dresser, ask maintenance to check the vents for small dead animals, etc. I don’t know that I’d necessarily have thought to look for a dead body under a mattress.

I would probably have checked with management about closing the room off until the smell could be got rid of, though.

:: shudder:: I will never be able to stay in a motel again.

:: massive attach of the willies ::

Daddy, there’s a monster under the bed.
“Hello, Front Desk? Lost & Found department please.”

Oh please; it would already have occurred to the person or people who put him there.

Never been married, have you?

The guy is an idiot to stay in a stinky room.

“Did you enjoy your stay sir?”

As Jay Leno noted, the worst part was when the hotel found out, they charged the guy for double occupancy!

better yet, after a night spent watching movies :The Living Dead, then decide as a joke to look under the matress…

** BobLibDem ** thanks for another funny answer :smiley:

Ewwwww! The mere thought of the “scent of corpse” is enough to make me want to hurl.

*Maybe the corpse was a doper who hadn’t posted in a while, can everyone account for their doper buddy?

“Well, all I can say sir, is that you must have brought it with you”

“Hellow, we’re on our honeymoon. Since we are young and adventerous, which room would you recommend?”

Another reason to sponge off of relatives when traveling:D

I will pass this on to the hubby who is a desk clerk at a local motel!
