The Elsinore Theatre in Salem, Oregon is rumored to be haunted by several spirits, including the builder's daughter who died falling from the balcony, and a boy killed in the men's bathroom, who may be responsible for sightings of blood in mirrors and a cold spot on stage. Other reported phenomena include shadows appearing from the ghost light and figures walking through seating, with witnesses describing the overall presence as more warm and welcoming than scary. A common story claims the ghost of the owner's daughter haunts the upper balcony, where she is believed to have fallen and died. Another legend speaks of a boy killed in the men's bathroom, leading to claims of blood reflected in the mirrors. During a rehearsal for A Midsummer Night's Dream, a figure was seen standing in the front row, only to walk through the chairs and dissolve into the fifth row. The stage's traditional ghost light has been known to cast shadows that move independently of the light source, disappearing into the projection booth. Unlike scary haunted locations, the overall atmosphere at the Elsinore Theatre is often described as warm and welcoming. There is a legendary cold spot on stage, though its cause isn't specified. Some accounts mention pebbles falling on people rehearsing on stage.
