THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Belasco Theatre is considered one of Broadway's most haunted venues. The spirit of theater impresario David Belasco has reportedly been seen watching rehearsals from the balcony and wandering backstage. Actors and crew have also reported mysterious footsteps, unexplained lights, and other paranormal activity throughout the theater.
Above the Belasco Theatre, former owner David Belasco and his partner, aka the Blue Lady, used to live in an apartment. He died in 1931, but his spirit, as well as that of the Blue Lady, still resides here, according to witnesses. Their apparitions have been seen onstage while performances are going on, as well as in the elevator and in the audience.
