Italian Suite

  • Just outside sits Frank’s chair, where he would welcome guests during parties, even when his illness limited his mobility near the end of his life 

  • Originally Frank Henderson’s private room, this chamber once featured heated marble floors, the space includes access to the second level of the King’s Tower, distinguished by its center evil eye window and delicate snowflake-style frames. 

  • Henderson, who suffered from severe arthritis, had a custom 13-headed shower built here, at his doctor’s advice 

  • The white patch of wall behind the gold mirror once held a connecting door to the Maple Tree Room, while the missing trim behind the bedroom door marks a former passage to the Victorian Room. 

  • Many visitors now report a strange impression on the bed, as if someone has just sat down, long after the room’s original master took his last rest
