Casey Moore's Oyster House is described as haunted by reports of paranormal activity, including moving objects like swinging lamps and thrown silverware, furniture rearrangement, and even crashing paintings. The haunting is often attributed to the spirits of the original homeowners, the Moeurs family, or a young woman murdered in the house when it served as a bordello in the 1950s, with some paranormal encounters occurring when couples show public displays of affection. Guests and staff have reported instances of lamps swinging on their own, silverware being thrown across the room, and paintings falling from walls. Furniture is sometimes seen rearranged or out of place. Some stories mention the sighting of the ghosts of the Moeurs family, William and Mary, sometimes seen dancing in an upstairs window. There are also accounts of a young woman, who was murdered in the house, appearing with dark hair and light eyes during operating hours. The building, constructed in 1910, initially served as a residence for the Moeurs family before becoming a boarding house and bordello in the 1950s. Stories of rapes, murders, and suicides are associated with the property's history as a bordello, contributing to the belief in paranormal activity. Some legends suggest that paranormal activity intensifies when romantic couples engage in public displays of affection (PDA) at the restaurant. The haunting is said to occur throughout the property, including the kitchen area and a haunted attic.
