THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Employees at this former Fuddruckers location have reported unexplained noises and unusual activity after closing, including sounds suggesting someone was moving through otherwise empty parts of the restaurant. Some witnesses have also described objects apparently moving on their own and an unsettling sense that they were not alone.
At Fuddrucker’s restaurant, formerly a Blockbuster Video, a haunt is rumored to reside. When it was Blockbuster, the ghost was rumored to activate battery-powered toys, turn lights on and off, open doors, and speak over the sound system, saying things like “shh… listen,” and “you’ve been bad.” Blockbuster Video was demolished in 2007 and Fuddrucker’s was built, but some attribute at least some of the hauntings to the fact that the area was a skate park in the 1980s and a boy broke his neck there.
