Hi...me again.... I had another question. I've seen The Mabel Tainter Theatre in Menomonie listed in a few spots...but haven't really seen any accounts to go with these listings. Does anyone know what people have seen, heard, etc there? My husband and I actually got married at the Tainter in 2000. After I noticed it being listed as haunted..I dashed to my photo albums to look for "orbs" but didn't have any ...lol. Anyways..anyone have any info for me on this? I've always loved the Mabel Tainter...it's such a beautiful place!! It does have that certain "creep factor" to it though. I remember running around in there as a kid quite a bit. My aunt always took her crafts to their annual craft fair thing and my cousin and I would "explore" during the show. When you look at the paintings....there is one in the stairway..I believe it is of Mabel herself...you get that "eerie...she's watching me feeling". Anyways..just wondering if anyone has any goods on this site.....as you can tell...I'm pretty novice at all this stuff. Thanks again, Olivia

The Mabel Tainter Theatre is in our new book, but here is a quick summary!
-It is believed that Mabel is not the one haunting the theatre. Mabel died before the theatre was constructed.
Many of the staff believe that the ghost is Mabel’s mother or a possible staff person that is still haunting the theatre.
-Staff and customers report seeing the ghost of a woman downstairs, especially near the women’s bathroom
-Staff have seen balls of light in the library (storage room)
-Staff have reported having their equipment changed overnight when no one was present
These are only a few of the many strange phenomena that have been reported at the theatre. For the complete case report check out our book.

Chad, Thank you so much for your information. Yeah...I guess the theater was built as a memorial for Mabel after her death...so that makes sense that she wouldn't be there haunting it. Wow.. lots of interesting accounts....and yes...I will definately check out the book...I can't wait. Again, thanks so much for the information. Olivia P.S: I read in the paper a few weeks back that they are proposing a huge renovation project for the Mabel....wonder if that will stir up any new paranormal? Sometimes remodeling does...doesn't it?
