Illinois Ghost Adventures (part 2)

This weekend we visited the old Fischer Theater in Danville. Built in 1884, it functioned as an opera house and later as a cinema. It closed in 1982. Restoration began in the 1990s, but when a technician accidentally left his recording equipment running over night, he recorded strange noises. The Vermilion Heritage Foundation called in the Springfield Ghost Society. During an investigation, they encountered dark spectral figures.



The theater remains closed, allegedly due to rising utility and maintenance costs. Maybe this is true. Or maybe malicious spirits still stroll the darkened aisles of the old Fischer Theater.

I had to film and narrate this because Aine refused to get out of the car. She said filming on a city street embarrassed her. Maybe this is true. Or maybe she could feel the dark presence that inhabits the projector room of the old Fischer Theater.

You'll notice I make several long pauses while speaking and seem to forget what I was saying. It seemed like a long day and I felt tired. Maybe this is true. Or maybe my mind went fuzzy due to pernicious energy emanating from the old Fischer Theater.
