Georgetown is a beautiful city along the South Carolina coast, and it is also known as the “Ghost Capital of the South.” Many long-term residents still walk among the living here.
One location that is said to be haunted is the Strand Theatre, located at 710 Front Street. Several online sources, like the Southern Spirit Guide, have documented the activity in the building.
The plot of land has been home to a cinema since the Peerless Theatre opened its doors in 1914. In Sherman Carmichael’s Eerie South Carolina book, he covers the unearthly visitors that still roam the halls. People have reported hearing footsteps, unexplained sounds, whispers, and experiencing cold spots inside.
