THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Boulder Theater in Colorado is famously haunted by its former 1940s manager, George Paper, who local legend claims accidentally hanged himself while fixing a high lighting rig. His playful spirit is known to frequently flip light switches, turn on bathroom faucets, open doors, and rearrange backstage set lists. His supernatural presence is so well-established that the theater's adjacent pub was officially named George's Food & Drink in his honor.
