The Final Days in PicturesExpand The Final Days in Pictures
Legend has it that the building which is now The Ale House was, at one time, a brothel. This was long before Whole Foods moved into the neighborhood, mind you. And legend also has it that the Madame was murdered on the second or third floor by a disgruntled client.

There are numerous tales of strange activities in the Ale House, and many of them are even attributed to the ghosts: Chairs and stools showing up in places where they shouldn't be, glasses breaking, sounds of footsteps without an obvious source of feet, and the occasional tap or touch felt when nobody is behind you.

Also, occasionally somebody plays Bananarama's "Venus" on the jukebox. No human would do that.


Is This a Ghost?

Some people say they see an image of a woman in a flowing white gown with her arms raised, floating in front of the window. Others say it's just a trick of light. And still others say the photographer probably just used a long exposure and had his friend take the picture while he went over and jumped around like an idiot. 

What do you see?

Okay, some serious attempts at capturing ghostly imagery and impressions can be found at the following sites:
