Strange Indeed

Okay, here it goes. My son Jordan has been working on a boat out in Louisiana. The boat had a problem with the water and sewer pipes and so the guys had to get off the ship while repairs were being made. The company put them up in a nice hotel while the repairs were being made and one evening quite a few of the guys were down in the hotel restaurant lounge area, hanging out while doing laundry and getting something to eat. While they were there a guy was hanging out around them who spoke broken English mixed with Spanish. This man was singing, pestering the guys and just being a bit obnoxious.

As the night went on the guys all went up to their rooms and Jordan was the last one (figures) waiting for his laundry to be done. This man then came straight up to Jordan grabbed him firmly by the shoulders and told him that he needed to get his stuff and get up to his room right away or that Jordan would die. He then kissed Jordan on his forehead.

Well this kind of freaked Jordan out, so he got his stuff and headed up to his room. He used his key card, unlocked the door and stepped inside the room. As he walked in the room stepping out of the shadows and already in his room was this guy!! The one down in the hotel dinning lounge!!! Jordan froze in fear as this guy walked passed him and out of the room saying, “do not leave this room!”

After the man left Jordan called the hotel desk and told them that there was a guy in his room, but no one saw him again that night. Later that evening the other member from the crew came back to the hotel room and when Jordan told him the story his response was, “welcome to New Orleans” there have been no further incidences.

I’m still processing all of this and am relaying this from Jordan to Corinne to me. I will talk to my son about this more later. I probably should of waited before posting anything on Facebook and getting all the interest, but I was pretty freaked out myself with the story and have been wondering, how did this guy get into Jordan’s room without a key and how would he know which room was Jordan’s in the first place? Was this a warning for protection? Or is this a part of some of the dark stuff that happens down in New Orleans?

Anyway, as you remember, please keep Jordan in your prayers.
