The Liberty Theater is a cool place. My aunt does the janitorial work there…..and being in there, I have not noticed any incounters so far. She has told me that in the evenings, a male ghost figure sits in the chairs and watches the “plays”. The liberty theater is open again now, and has things that do go on in there too.

The Liberty has since reopened and has undergone a multi-million dollar remodel and restoration. There are many different shows performed there throughout the year; it is once again a hub for entertainment in Astoria.

I remember a chat with the former metaphysical
bookstore owner downstairs, where the cafe is now
before the big multi-million renovation … She was
genuinely afraid to go upstairs, because of noises,
boxes moving/falling by themselves, etc .. the local
network of psychics here always knew about the “man”
upstairs, some say they even saw him, but oddly, the
stories were always suppressed … now the new
director of the Liberty Theatre says she welcomes
all paranormal investigators, but most have moved
on to some of the many other buildings in Astoria,
and I was only upstairs briefly, a year ago, on
a photo assignment for The Daily Astorian at that
time …
If anyone who was involved with the bookstore is
still around, feel free to contact me, as I have
heard there still is quite a Wiccan underground
here … thanks joe@astoriamovies.com

I’ve heard that battery russel is haunted, and theres rumors about the flavel house, and even the job corps building.
Comment by coral | 10.11.2007 | 8:23 pm
i actually heard that the flavel house is haunted also. i was told that a lamp or light in the top tower of the flavel house will just turn on sometimes at night and no body is there. never actually saw it but would love to just sit near by and see if it really does.

This is almost like the elsinore theatre,A girl fell off the balcony and now she haunts the place were she fell.And a boy went to the mens restrooom and got killed they say u can still see the blood in the mirror.

I was raised in and around Astoria–Olney & Warrenton.
I’m positive there are hauntings in Astoria and the area. My aunt lives in the oldest house standing in Warrenton and the feeling of our deceased relatives of 4 or 5 generations just oozes through me when I visit her house, particularly my great grandma who died the year I was born.
BUT-There is a huge old house in the extra steep area of Astoria, I don’t know the street because I was about 8 years old–my mom was a private duty nurse for an elderly couple named the Macy’s. Would have been 1978. Does anyone know who the Macy’s were and which house they owned?
That house - I was only 8 but I swear there were old musty feeling ghosts, particularly on the second floor.
I think there is a third floor also.
There are other places that made me get goosebumps.

Hello all, I live in Astoria. I went to the Liberty once , after the renovation. Its rumored that you can see the woman in the mirror.. I didnt see her. The bunkers rock. What fun and creepy at dusk. I would like to know who has the oldest house in warrenton, we owned the second oldest house, and Granny had the OLDEST house here. Till we had to tear it down, it was leaning so far…e-mail me if you know… (tara??) babydoll4ver@yahoo.com
Comment by crysta | 01.9.2008 | 12:39 am
The extra steep area you’re talkign about, Tara is A Street, and the name of the house is the Flavel House. A lot of people have talked about it previously in this thread. It’s very cool. I’d like to go in there sometime. It was closed for cleaning or something the last time I was in Astoria.

OMG! I used to work at the Liberty Theatre when it was still in operation as a movie theatre.You definetly get a weird feeling in the women’s bathroom…always have…But that’s nothin’ compared to the feeling you get when you go downstairs…to I guess it was a basement of sorts…They kept the ice machine down there…So we HAD to go down there…You got so scared by whatever you felt down there that you just wanted to run….I think I only went down there once alone and never again after that.There was also a locked door down there we never got into…I heard that whenthey remodeled it they found a bunch of really old movie posters in there…It’s haunted for sure…and whatever was in the basement wasn’t good…I never saw a ghost but you could feel them there.

If you can’t spell “Ouija Board” then you deffinatley shouldn’t be playing with them.
They are not toys and shouldnt be used by those who do not know how to correctly open & close the board.
