Lights down, screams up! This week on Boo Sisters, we're diving deep into the tragic and terrifying world of haunted theaters. First, Lora takes us back to Chicago, 1903, and the horrific Iroquois Theatre fire. 602 souls perished in the blaze, and their sorrowful spirits are said to haunt the infamous "Death Alley" to this day.
Then, Autumn whisks us across the pond to London's legendary Theatre Royal Drury Lane, a hotspot for spectral performers and mischievous poltergeists. From the "Man in Grey" to the playful spirits in the dressing rooms, this historic playhouse is a veritable stage for the supernatural. Get ready for spine-tingling accounts of ghostly actors, disembodied floating heads, and the eerie feeling of being watched from the empty seats.
Join us as we explore the tragic pasts and haunted present of these iconic theaters. Are these just stories, or are the spirits of the past still putting on a show? Tune in to Boo Sisters and decide for yourself!
