Ask any professional athlete who has played enough road games in Milwaukee, and they'll likely have a story about the Pfister Hotel. Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Teoscar Hernández and his wife, Jennifer, know that, and the couple left the team hotel during the 2025 MLB postseason over concerns about its haunted reputation. "I don't believe in ghosts," Hernández, 33, told the media before the Dodgers faced the Milwaukee Brewers in Game 2 of the National League Championship Series on Tuesday, October 14. "I have stayed in there before. I've never seen anything or heard anything. But my wife is on this trip, and she said she doesn't want to stay there. So we have to find another hotel. But I've been hearing from other players and other wives that it's something happening in these couple of nights." Completed in 1893, the Pfister Hotel is a favorite for visiting pro sports teams. It has also been the site of numerous supposed supernatural encounters. Athletes have reported their lights or TVs turning on and off, seemingly at random. Others recall finding their belongings in different locations than where they left them, hearing footsteps belonging to nobody and watching a moving light pass through the hallway on its own. Celeb Dodgers and Baseball Fans Mourn Fernando Valenzuela's Death Hernández, who is seeking his second-straight World Series crown with the Dodgers, has heard enough stories that he understands his wife's trepidation. "The lights, some of the rooms, the lights go off and on," he said. "And the doors, there are noises, footsteps ... I'm not the guy that I'm going to be here saying, 'Oh yeah, I experienced that before,' because I'm not. And I don't think I'm going to experience that." Hernández isn't the only Dodgers player who has opted out of staying at the Pfister. Star Mookie Betts routinely avoids the hotel when playing in Milwaukee, opting for an AirBnb instead. The supposed ghost stories go back decades. Former Dodger Adrian Beltre reported mysterious knocking on his door during a road trip in 2001. Carlos Gomez, who eventually joined the Brewers, said in 2008 while playing for the Minnesota Twins that "everything's scary" at the Pfister.

No good," he said, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. More recently, former NBA star Kendrick Perkins recalled how his bathroom light seemed to turn on by itself during a stay at the hotel. "Like, 30 minutes later, the light comes on again," he said in a June appearance on Channing Frye and Richard Jefferson's "Road Trippin'" podcast. "I'm like, 'F*** this.' I look at my phone, Reggie Jackson, he's calling, [and he said], 'Hey, bro, there's some weird stuff going on in my room.' I was like, 'Bro, I was about to tell you the same damn thing.' No lie." Though putting opponents up in a haunted hotel could be a way to gain an extra home field advantage, it did not work for the Brewers in the NLCS. The Dodgers won the first two games of the best-of-seven series in Milwaukee and are just two wins away from returning to the World Series for the second straight year.
