The Pasadena playhouse is one of the most charming landmarks from past Pasadena glory days. It's stage productions has launch some of the great careers of old Hollywood, one being (I'm told William Holden and many more). It's been saved many times from being torn down and it's well worth attending their many performances. Now, I've been told it's also haunted. Many stage hands have reported being pinched while working on the catwalk alone. Lights can been seen turning themselves off & on , as well a toilets flushing when no one is in the bathroom. (Odd, you mean you have to GO even when you're a ghost?) Voices reciting Shakespeare can be heard after midnight my the cleaning crew staff. Once an actor always I say.

Yup, always an actor.
I wonder why to the pinching?
How does a spirit bladder work, I wonder?
Where did you learn all of those tidbits???
Does pinching means good luck there as it does for Italian actors ?
old theatres always give me a chill down my spine, haunted or not. great post!
Hey Gal, I'll be glad to tell you my tale. It's not that thrilling, though. Do you want it at your email?
This post remembered me another one. Being a navy cadet in my country many, many years ago, on guard duty, a couple of times saw the shower water starts running ... the strange thing was that the taps were unscrewed at the shower, not because some external water adjustment. As far as I knew, a couple of young guys had died at that building; though, sailors are quite good creating stories just to scare other people.
perfect post for haloween eh!
That's funny about ghosts flushing the toilet! LOL.
