Bay Street Theatre
Eustis, FL 32726
This theater has a ton of paranormal claims surrounding it. Screams have been heard in the upstairs rooms, orbs have appeared in photos, eerie phantom presences have been felt all throughout the building and one was visitor even reported seeing a man hanging from the balcony. Lights turn on and off by themselves as well. There is an area beneath the stage, called "The Hole," which is considered to be a hot spot in the theater. Paranormal investigators discovered bizarre temperature changes and reported a general feeling of eeriness that scared some people right out of the area.

Reviews
Not sure why others are saying they had negative experiences here. I’ve been told by a long time employee that they believe it is haunted but that the spirits are good and have never caused any harm. Knocking things over is about as harmful as he has ever seen or heard. This theater has not been investigated much at all. A group has come through and there is a YouTube video but it’s kind of lame and too many people in at once. My daughter performs and works here and is alone A LOT. She has never had an experience but does feel weird there but comfortable knowing they aren’t bad spirits. There is more history to the building than shared online. There was once an icecream shop to the right that burned down. In the cocktail room you can still see the burn marks of the barstools that once sat at the counter. The original ceiling above them shows damage also. No one was killed in the fire though. There are like 14 rooms to this location and a bullet hole is still left in a room upstairs from an apparent murder but I have not been able to find anything online from years past about a shooting there. No suspicious stories seem to be recorded of deaths in the theater BUT there are apartments surrounding it so who knows. We do have one cool video my daughter took that I personally noticed orbs in. She was walking down what performers refer to as the stairs of death ( a really skinny staircase for performers to travel through) and as she is walking down it clearly shows one orb jump up from a step and move to the right and then another on another step below does the same. It seems as if maybe two spirits were sitting on the steps near each other and both jumped up to move out of her way for her to pass through! It’s really neat! She didn’t feel or notice anything odd at that moment. I believe she still has that video to share. I am currently working on presenting to the board the opportunity for paranormal investigations there to bring in funds to help the theater with donations :) Just need to investigate enough prior to make sure it is truly haunted and worth investigating for outsiders.
