In the land of the pharaohs there once existed a hotel which in its heyday was the most historically important of any in the world; for it was a place where in times not long gone, Egypt’s old Gods walked amongst us mere mortals. It was in its beautiful gardens that I met the ghost of a man who told of a girl with the blackest of hair and the bluest of eyes; who overcame death itself; through the ancient Egyptian belief that death is but only the beginning; and for those who have faith and goodness in their hearts, they too will find a new life with those they love; a life that will last for all eternity, amongst the ‘Field of Reeds’, one which is their very own vision of paradise. This is the story of the Old Luxor Hotel.
