Description

Little Theatre – Along with the spirit of the stage manager who comitted suicide and the baby, there are, in addition, some 100 other ghosts haunting the theatre. For example, there are the spirits of two secretaries in the box office that like to throw things. There is even the spirit of a little dog that is rarely seen. Lander’s Theatre is by far the most haunted spot in Springfield.

πŸ“ Case Notes

Imported from The Shadowlands Database

Haunted Lineage note: While it may seem fantastical to claim over 100 ghosts haunting a location, this can happen, but is unlikely. This does not necessarily discount that the place is actually haunted, but that local stories are likely numerous.
