There’s really no better date night than dinner and a movie, and you can have both at the Kelso Theater Pub. And that might not be all. In addition to being a hot spot in town to enjoy a piping hot pizza and the latest blockbuster, this spot is rumored to be haunted by multiple spirits.

The Kelso Theater Pub is located at 216 S Pacific Ave.

The theater looks like a charming and fun place, and it is. It just happens to (probably) be haunted.

The theater has had numerous investigative teams hunt for paranormal activity, and many of them have seen and heard things.

A psychic who came to the theater has said that two little girls haunt the women’s restroom, and a ghost named Franklin walks the balcony.

There has been a lot of speculation about who these spirits might be (like a man who was rumored to be shot on the street outside), but no one has found any concrete evidence.
