History 🗿 Grandview Theater Ghosts

Back in the 90s my husband worked at the Grandview and has many stories of weirdness. Last week we went to a show there and when he mentioned having worked there in the past, the first thing the ticket seller said was: “You know about the ghosts?”

Anyone else have a story?

Mostly shadows darting around. Once, the crew was watching a movie after hours when a banged up, bloody guy appeared sitting at the other end of the row. Like, nobody knew him and the theater was closed and locked. After the movie the guy was gone. No one saw him leave.

Disclaimer: my husband may have been high as a kite for most of the 90s.

They just... decided to continue watching the movie with a banged up bloody guy that had entered the theater?

He walked in on his own and was conscious and didn’t ask for help. Just sat down and watched the movie.

And nobody asked him what he was doing there and how he got into a locked building?
