THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The historic Elitch Theatre is said to be haunted by Mary Elitch, who helped establish the original Elitch Gardens and remained closely connected to the property throughout her life. Her apparition has reportedly been seen inside the theater, while visitors and staff have described unexplained footsteps and other signs of a lingering presence.
It is said that Mary Long Elitch still roams the theater. Through the 1960’s, stars performing here have reported seeing Mary Sitting Usually sitting on the top deck.
