Not true. My girlfriends brother worked there. Nothing but a bunch of gay men waiters, mostly from the nearby theatre district. They are out of work actors and they love to bullshit people. Don’t fall for the lies!

When I went there, I was in a band trip to see The Nut Cracker. I never actually saw anything but I did feel a warm spot on the bass instruments. They seemed to have been recently played, but they are old and in no condition to be used. My friend said she felt something tap on her shoulder but no one was even near her. Some people said that they got a picture of a ghost,but I think they were just kidding.

When we were taking the pictures of it we heard a loud noise like some one was hitting a piece of metal. That was scary!!!! Check out Castle Heron. com for the haunted castle in lake worth

I grew up in the Houston area and my family and I used to eat at the Spaghetti warehouse fairly often. I wasnt aware of the haunted allegations at that time. I did however venture up the large staircase occasionally while waiting for our food for some reason though…I can’t remember why, perhaps the bathroom was up there. But, I remember there would never be anyone up there, and I would always get this strange feeling. The room is very large up there and there is a strange, deafining silence that goes beyong “normal silence”. I got an interesting feeling up there…somewhat of a dreadful feeling, as if something where about to happen. It could have simply been imagination, but somehow I think not. I could almost feel that something happened up there in the past. Very interesting.

The name of the restaurant in Houston is called “The Old Spaghetti Warehouse” and it supposedly does have some strange going ons there. Apparently enough things happen that Ghost Tours of Houston make it one of their stops. I have eaten there and have not personally experienced anything there and also went upstairs and again nothing out of the usual for me. There is a cool trolley car up there to sit and eat it in upstairs. The food is okay and the place has a lot of neat old decorations. I did say that I never experienced anything unusual but I left out one interesting thing. The people that lead the ghost tours were interviewing potential “tour guides” and I went there for an interview. They had just gotten one of those little handheld “EMI”(I am not sure exactly what it is called) detectors and it went off like crazy when I sat down. I think it freaked them out as they had not had anything like that happen to them apparently. I just shrugged my shoulders and told them that it was probably my deceased husband tagging along for the interview. Anyway, they didn’t hire me. Their loss!

Last summer, me, my aunt, cousin and grandma went to eat at The Spaghetti Warehouse. We were eating and nothing happened out of the ordinary but, when we were finished, I was waiting for my family by the door, underneath the chandilier, and in the middle of the room I saw a gray fuzzy figure just slide across the room, from left to right. When my family finally came, they asked if I saw that and I said ya…..thats the last time we ever ate there!!

Jason says:

Not to be confused with, The Spaghetti Wharehouse in West End, in Dallas, TX, wich is also purported to be haunted.

I am living in South Africa (Durban)and find Haunted anything very interesting and you guys seem to be in bliss. I find it interesting because one wonders why some ghosts(lost souls) were left here (on earth) and some souls managed to escape! I would like to find out where Haunted Houses could be found here although I know there are quite a few in Cape Town - must go seeeeeeeeeeeee (ha!)

BRENDA JIMENEZ says:

I whent there on a school field trip. We were on the 2nd floor to eat and when my friends and i whent to the restroom we sat on a chair and it shifted on its own. I was totally freaked out!!!!!!!=0

Anna says:

July 13, 2006, 3:30 pm

Ok, First of all, I feel the need to straighten out a few details…#1 it was not an italian restaurant when murders occurred there. Murders affect tipping.
Second, this is the downtown Houston Location, I have been there and the atmosphere has to be just right, or if it is quieter, then you can feel something if you are sensitive enough. Note: A lot of the buildings used as stores \restaurants were buildings used for other purposes long ago, so , really, who knows that goes on where. It might be interesting to look up what buildings have been there the longest and for what purposes, and see if they have any activity. I walk the underground tunnels everyday, and I nkow they are…”occupied” in some fashion.
Happy hunting!
Anna
Other than that, it’s a nice place, waitstaff so so. Cute place.

Ruby says:

July 26, 2006, 5:03 pm

I had only been there ounce, it was during a school field trip. I think it was in 7th grade when i went. I did’nt know anything about the place until we had all sat down to order but before i did my friend wanted me to go with her. While i was there waiting for her the room felt weird i dont know why but i felt i was being watch or something but as soon as my friend got out of the stall she washed her hands quick and wanted to leave out of that room as fast as she could!!!!!!!!

annab says:

September 7, 2006, 5:35 pm

Duh, there is a spahgetti warehouse in Houston,Tx. and I have eaten there before and my girlfriend use to work there also. And the upstairs is haunted and when you eat up there you do feel uneasy. when my friend first started working there they had to try all the dishes that they serve so that way when someone asks if it was any good they could say yes honistly, well they had everything setup in the dinning area upstairs and she stated it was very uncomfortable and cold.

Lisa says:

this place is really haunted because when i was in 8th grade we had a field trip near the resturant and we stopped there for lunch and while couple people were in the bathrooms both the boys and the girls we heard banging on the walls and a ghostly figure in the mirror and then some writings the mirrors saying get out and we all got scared like **** seriously it really is haunted

Lori says:

October 28, 2006, 10:58 pm

The Spaghetti Warehouse is a great resturant and lots of fun. If you go there, go up to the second floor and look at the picture on the wall. It is very eerie. Very cool and interesting place.Great antiques and awesome stained glass windows. A must see in Houston.

Holly says:

October 30, 2006, 12:48 pm

The place was a cotton warehouse and then a pharmaceuticals warehouse. The former owner fell down the elevator shaft and is aid to still haunt it today. The second floor is suppose to be the most haunted but it was the bathroom where I experienced something. I went to use the bathroom and as I sat there I heard the door open and the stall door to my right open. I thought my friend had joined me. So I got out washed my hands and waited for someone to come out. Either it was a ghost or I did not hear the doors open again because after a while I knocked on the door and noone was in there. I thought maybe I heard a door from outside but I remember the stall door close. So I don’t know. No one was around at the time. I also thought it could be a draft but both doors opened.

Brian says:

I went to the Spaghetti Warehouse in downtown Houston over the weekend. I have some pictures of a ghost like image and I have it here in a GIF format so you can see it move about right under the light. It is always right around that corner on the second floor. I have seen other pictures where the image was in a different shape like an S. Every time that I go there the shape is a little different. You can only see it with a flash. So a strobe light would be awesome to see it move about.

Here are the images

I went to the Spaghetui Warehouse for the first time in Downtown Houston last Friday. I felt fine while we were eating on the second floor, but when I went to the rest room before that I had this really uneasy feeling. I kept hearing creaking noises and a bang. I was in there by myself. It wasn’t until we were eating that I found out from my boyfriend’s sister that the place was haunted after the former owner died in the elevator shaft. The large picture of some guy on the wall was scary as well. Don’t go there by yourself. The parking lot is in the back when it is really crowded. and there usually are alot of homeless people hanging around by the bayou river.

Karen Redmon says:

November 10, 2006, 1:22 am

This might be long, but well worth reading it:
There is a woman (there may be more than just her) who is on the second floor and whose spirit is alive. My husband and I went there tonight, November 9th, and experienced something we’ve never experienced before, well at least this strong. The first thing I felt was in the downstairs bathroom. It was as if there was someone all around me, watching. I quickly went back to my table to finish eating and just shrugged off the feeling I had. However, after dinner, we walked up the stairs and my husband immediately headed for the left small dining room. The rest of us walked around looking at the old items on the floor, but he walked in there and the first thing he said into the dark was “I apologize for what is about to happen, don’t get upset.” He was referring to the fact that we were up there making a joke of it all like “oooo, it’s haunted” but it isn’t a joke. It is very much real and her presence was felt all around us. My brother felt her pass by when we stepped into the dark corner by the door in the small dining room. He didn’t believe in spirit hauntings, but he does now. My younger niece and one of her friends were running in the kitchen by the elevator basically mocking the whole situation. They were showing no respect for the spirit world and for the poor woman who is stuck there. But her other friend, would not go into the kitchen. She kept saying that the spirit was moving from the small dark corner where my husband, brother and I felt her, to the elevator in the kitchen where my niece was playing around. She said that we needed to leave, that the spirit was getting upset. Basically, we were disturbing the Spirit and her space.
It has now been about 2 hours since we left, and my husband is still shaken up. He had tears in his eyes and I asked him what was wrong. He said, “Karen, she was sad. The spirit was very sad.”
The crazy thing about all this is that neither one of us knew that this place was “haunted” let alone the story behind it. When we got there we found out from the cashier that there was haunted activity upstairs and we thought why not just go up and see. We had no idea it was true and so very strong. After what we just experienced and what I just read online regarding the old Warehouse haunting, there is no doubt that this place holds spirits. I just wish that this woman’s spirit who is sad and looking for her husband, can rest one day in peace.

December 6, 2006, 11:08 pm

Yes the warehouse is haunted and yes it is still open it was closed for remodling. Why is this the only place listed as haunted what about the old Jefferson Hospital? Well its haunted too, so is the Esperson building. I use to work there and at night you can here footsteps going down the hall and no one in sight. That is the spookiest place to be at night. Houston offers a lot of haunted places you just have to know where to look! Watch out! What’s behind you?

We just ate at the Spaghetti Warehouse in Houston for lunch on Travis heading up I-45 North. Just like Holly stated it used to be a pharmaceutical trade warehouse. An elderly man fell to his death through an open elevator shaft and broke his neck. They state that his wife at the time in the late 40’s was found dead in her house shortly after from grieving after him. They say that her spirit is in the house. I have been upstairs many times and like stated earlier there is a trolly car that you can dine in with four tables on each side. You can get a lunch special for about $5.50 which comes with a drink and salad. Like I stated I have eaten there many times and I have never seen anything happen. Nothing. The food stinks the parking lot to the west side has some major potholes the place has very old memoribilia which smells like dust. The place sucks but it is a houston monument. I did not know that much about the hauntings allegidely but this time they gave us a laminated sheet going on in detail. People can pay a rate to go on a paranormal tour. It is all a ridiculous myth.

Blake says:

December 10, 2006, 12:37 am

Too top that off there was a sweet female waitress that waited on us and I asked her if it was BS. She said that she has been there for two years and nothing has happened to her out of the ordinary. When you walk in you have that tiny room and have to go to the right for that lobby. There is a bar on the left with a couple of pooltables. When you enter the main restaurant the large wooden stairs are to the right and turn to the right halfway up. Like I said nothing has happened.

I have been going to the Spaghetti Warehouse in Houston since childhood, and I’ve never seen anything, but did hear something unusual Mother’s Day dinner, 2 or 3 years ago. We were dining in the center of the room on the 1st floor when I started hearing this clicking like every few minutes or so, and I couldn’t figure out what the noise was until maybe hearing it 4 times. It sounded like those old timey cameras, the kind that make the faint whistle after the picture is taken. I looked all around us and didn’t see anyone taking pictures. Then I asked my daughters and husband if they heard that clicking, without saying what I thought the noise was they all said yes, and said they’ve been hearing it, and started looking around the room. My husband then stated, “Is someone taking pictures?” and I said “I don’t see anyone or even a flash”. We all looked around again and didn’t see anyhting, so we asked our waiter if someone is taking pictures somewhere in the restaurant and he said “No”. We got a little creeped out cause the noise kept on as we talked to the waiter, and asked him if he knew what that clicking noise was, he looked at us strangely and said he didn’t hear anything. I realize the restaurant was getting crowded for dinner at that time and it was getting noisy with conversation but I couln’t understand why he didn’t hear that! It was sorta lous and annoying. Anyway, we haven’t ate there since, even though it is my favorite italian food. I should have checked to see if they had an antique camera somewhere on display there, maybe it was haunted. lol Oh well, maybe next time I’ll check. :p

Tito says:

February 14, 2007, 9:54 pm

I’ve been to this restaraunt several times and have seen the alledged haunted dish cupboard. Let me tell you, the only thing scary about this place is the service!!

For some real ghost stuff check out the haunted tractor that ran over the mayor of Freeport,TX in Dec. 2006

Samantha says:

February 23, 2007, 7:25 pm

The food is great, and the history behind it is truly fascinating. I remember the last time I visited the restaurant, I had to go to the ladies room upstairs. And when I was done, I felt something brush my shoulder. I got kinda chilly, and I thought it was just the A/C. So I put on my hoodie, but still felt very chilly, then it started getting really cold. I got really freaked out, and then I turned around and there was nothing there. I remember there being a very large portrait in the top floor about 12×10, and I get this really weird feeling everytime I look at it. I really don’t know why, but just try going and stare at it. It gives you the chills.

debra says:

March 2, 2007, 1:52 am

The Old Spaghetti Warehouse in downtown Houston is Haunted and I have the pictures to prove it. I am a sensitive and as soon as I went into the first room on the second floor I felt something strange. What happened next has never happened to me before. A guy next to me was taking pictures of some old signs on the wall and in the flash the signs disappeared and blood was running down the wall in their place.And there was plenty of it. But as soon as the flash was over everything returned to normal. This really freaked me out. So I asked a waitress what was behind that wall and she told me the kitchen. That is where a man fell to his death in the elevator shaft. They don’t let anyone back there because someone got hurt going back there to see the elevator. But because of what I saw she decided to take me back there. I took a picture of the elevator but didn’t get anything, but when I turned around a feeling so strong came over me and I took a picture. What I got was a vortex with something red in it and a man’s face. There was nothing red in front of me. When I showed the waitress the picture she told me that on the other side of that wall was where I saw the blood and recently they had a party in that room with a pretty flower arraigement on one of the tables. They took a picture of the arraigement and floating above it in a prone position was a woman that looked dead. Maybe that was her blood on the wall. I intend on returning sometime soon to see if I can catch anything else.

September 13, 2007, 4:18 pm

Lately i have been watching alot of scary movies containing stories of ghost and paranormal activity with my room mates. I found myself getting very interested in it and want to learn more so I researched haunted places in houston and found this. So on this upcoming weekend I suckered my boyfriend into taking me there. But the only catch is that he doesn’t know about the stories behind the resteraunt. He does not even belive in ghost. Hopefully a trip to The Old Spaghetti Warehouse will change his mind. If anyone has any suggestions of where we should go next please let me know…..hahaha!!!

mitch says:

September 24, 2007, 4:27 am

The scariest part was the service. I went upstairs by myself, and the only thing that scared me, was a fat lady eating.

Cheyenne says:

September 24, 2007, 6:53 pm

I havent actually experienced the type of paronormal activity a the spagettie warehouse but my brother has….it is said that he went on a feild trip and the students ran because of things that were happennig…….trowing plates…..glassess being picked up……i feel that i should cheak this place out myself….besides i do9ing a project on it…

T.L. Moore says:

September 25, 2007, 10:46 pm

About a year ago my family and I went to the warehouse for my daughter’s birthday. The batteries in my camera was new, but went dead instantly. My son came down with a sudden headache. I took lots of pictures and wasn’t trying to catch a ghost or anything, but when I got home and looked at the pictures I was blown away. Two demon figures showed up in a mirror on the wall and two women in old fashion clothing showed up in another picture. The place is more than haunted!!! Something very evil has happened there in that building or maybe it is the land!! I tried to contact the show, Ghost hunters about this, but never heard back from them.

T.L. Moore says:

September 25, 2007, 10:51 pm

I forgot to mention that I walked past a pillar in the middle of the room that had a chair leaning against it. I saw the chair lean forward on its own and slam back against the pillar. It was pretty awesome, but scary at the same time.

Melissa says:

October 2, 2007, 9:54 am

O.k. My family has been to this restaurant many times and my sister went upstairs with friends and they never seen or heard anything but if you ever go and see the parking it leads to a bayou. well it is said that these two drunk guys thought the parking led to a road and didnt realize it led to a bayou and drove their car into the bayou. theres a barrier now along the parking to protect from the bayou.but this is true it came on the news.

Melissa says:

October 2, 2007, 9:56 am

And the bodies were found in the Bayou.

Samantha says:

October 4, 2007, 6:49 pm

I’ve been there plenty of times and i can say that it is hanuted.
When i was 10 my little brother and i were roaming the upstairs because we were always little ones to get into dark places and freak ourselves out. But we really got freaked out when we were on the little train car thats up there and we both saw an old conductor type guy up there holding a lantern staring at us. We hurried down stairs. My sister in law and I went and took pictures there and got many images that appeared to be a “apparation” and some pictures had objects in them that weren’t there to the naked eye.
It’s really an interesting place.

Samantha says:

October 4, 2007, 6:50 pm

And for people who keep asking.. look up the history of the building.. it wasn’t always an italian restaurant.

Louis says:

October 10, 2007, 5:26 pm

I have been to the Spaghetti Warehouse on Commerce Street in Houston. It is interesting that many people have had the same experience in the small dining room at the top of the stairs with the woman. I have a picture of a woman with her hair in a bun wearing a high collared dress. I took it to Wolf Camera to have it enlarge to see if I could figure out if it was a reflection or some other explainable image. No matter how large the picture got she was still there and not a mirror anywhere that would cast a reflection. I freaked the poor guy out at the counter when I told him it was possibly a ghost. There used to be a tour called High Spirit Tours that would take you around to the haunted places in downtown Houston. The Jeff Davis Hospital was on the tour. It is actually built on top of a cemetery. My sister and I both got some freaky pictures there. I hear they have now refurbished the place and turned it into loft apartments or something. I wonder if the current tenants have had unexplainable things happen to them??

Jessa says:

October 16, 2007, 2:05 am

Spaghetti Warehouse is in Houston, as well. Yes, it is still open. When it comes to ghostly hauntings and such, I would’ve never believed in it. I went there last year in October and got the opportunity to go upstairs (the most haunted spot), and I ventured into the first room on the left by myself. I suddenly felt very cold and something started growling in my ear very loudly. Needless to say, I freaked out and went downstairs. Yes, it is an Italian restaurant, but before it was a restaurant it was a cotten exchange building where quite a few murders happened. That’s why it’s haunted.

I want to bring my wife and kids to experience this Spaghetti Warehouse Houston phenomena on Saturday the 27th of Oct., but I am sure it will be busy. Do you know if we just go to eat lunch or dinner there, if management will allow me to bring the family upstairs just to look around? I read somewhere that if there is a private party already in progress, then no one will be allowed upstairs. Is this true?

Hi my name is Zoe I am 14 and I went to the spaghetti warehouse with my family for my big brothers graduation party.We were seated downstairs but my brother and I(with many other cousins& friends) wanted to see if the upstairs was REALLY haunted.So we went upstairs it was cold,creepy and dark.My cousin who is 16 had to go to the bathroom(the one upstairs) and she asked me to go with her so I did.When we got in there I had to go to so I did. She left really quick(probably wanting to scare me and i was 100% freaked but the scariest part was when the lights turned off when I was washing my hands/brushing my hair.When I was trying to get out I felt something right behind me(LIKE TOUCHING MY SHOULDER)! I REALLY DO THINK IT IS HAUNTED! BUT YOU CAN CHECK IT OUT FOR YOURSELF!!!!

this is all true.
I went there today and you could tell how creepy it was,
and one of the managers took her time to tell us about her experiences.
it may seem like a joke,
but when like,35 year old adults get serious about it,
then you know it’s prettyyy real.
go read some stories about it online.
very,very true.

I’ve lived in Houston for twenty one years and have visited the infamous haunted Spaghetti Warehouse in downtown Houston several times. My first visit to the restaurant was about five years ago. I was there with my husband and daughter for a friend’s dinner rehearsal. (At the time I had no clue that the place was haunted). The first scary experience I had was that evening during the dinner rehearsal in the ladies’ room on the second floor. While I was in one of the stalls, I heard the bathroom door open. Then I heard footsteps which sounded like it stopped in one of the stalls, then I heard the stall door shut. I was not thinking anything strange at this point of course but when I went to the sink to wash my hands, I looked behind me and none of the stalls were occupied (none of the doors were closed, there was no one else in the restroom). Definitely struck me as odd as I didn’t hear anyone leave the ladies’ room. I hurried out of there and rejoined the party and said nothing of it. A few weeks later, I was watching a show on tv, featuring some of the most haunted places in the U.S. Low and behold… the Spaghetti Warehouse in Houston was featured on that show. I think I was a little bothered by this so I called the friend who held her dinner rehearsal there several weeks before if she had known about the restaurant being haunted and she said she did. I then told her of my experience in the bathroom (I let her know next time she holds a party at a haunted place to let me know so I know what I’m in for beforehand)! The second time I went was with a couple of friends… no weird happenings that time as I stayed downstairs that time. The third time was October of 2007, my daughter and her friend were very interested in going after seeing things about the infamous Spaghetti Warehouse on tv and the internet. We ate downstairs. My husband and I were still eating, the girls were done and wanted to go check out the upstairs. We said they could go up, they came down after about ten minutes, not scared, saw nothing out of the ordinary…
We asked our waitress if the place was really haunted and she gave us a printout of the history/story of the place. It used be an old pharmaceuticals warehouse (there are many stories saying it used to store furs, produce, other things too - probably after it was a pharmaceuticals warehouse, not sure). One night, when the owner did not show up at home for dinner, his wife got concerned and went to her husband’s work. She found him dead at the bottom of the elevator shaft (he had fallen to his death).
So - after my husband and I finished eating our lunch we went upstairs with the girls. There were a lot of antique funishings, there were also several sets of doors with beautiful stained glass. The first set of doors however (the set furthest from the stairs) were broken. My daughter was walking with me when I was looking at the stained glass doors. Her face turned pale and she said not one word… Finally after asking her what was wrong and after several minutes, she tells me that when she and her friend had gone upstairs while my husband and I were downstairs fnishing up our lunch that she had noticed the doors but that none of them were broken. There was no one else upstairs with us (it was mid afternoon - a slow period for the restaurant at that time of day and all of the other customers were downstairs eating). I’m not sure if the set of doors led to the old elevator shaft or not. We took a bunch of photos of the upstairs - nothing too weird on the photos but some parts had more light than the rest of the photo (but no orbs) - hard to say if it was the lighting or the sunlight through the windows…
There’s more. Two things I saw on tv about the place (aired on two popoluar cable channels).
There was a paint company hired by the restaurant to repaint the inside of the place. One morning, early in the morning, the crew showed up to start working. The head of the crew went in to use the restroom while the others got their supplies together. He walks in and notices all the chairs and tables set up as they normally would, goes to the restroom but when he walks out, all the chairs were stacked from floor to ceiling. He thought “impossible” since he was only in the restroom for a minute. He walkie talkies his crew about the prank they played on him and they radio back that they were locked outside waiting for him to come out and open the door so they could begin work. He ran out of there, they packed up everything and he later called the manager and said that they would not do the job, for them to find someone else.

The other thing I saw on tv about the place… years ago, different families would donate furniture to the place (explaining a lot of the antique furniture you see there). One of the pieces, an armoire. But not just any armoire - an urn armoire. The family who used to own it, when a loved one died, they would have the person cremated and the ashes would be stored in an urn which would then be placed in the armoire. Now this armoire is supposedly in the restaurant. Not sure how much truth is in all of this though. I am a skeptic when it comes to some things but I know what my daughter and I experienced and it was real, no lie. Aside from the hauntings and strange occurances, we would definitely go back - the food is great and the service is awesome (just don’t go upstairs if you’re not into ghosts or things like that).

IT IS HAUNTED, I WENT TO THE ONE IN HOUSTON TODAY! I WAS i was in the girls restroom with my friends, we only heard thumps and creaks, so we were just having fun in there. then i got into a stall to check it out and closed the door, i heard a thump and i knew that my friend leaned against the door to hold me in; we were still laughing, but then i really couldn’t get out, the lock had locked itself, then the toilet behind me started to act up, make noises, and the water started to move. i freaked, i was pounding on the door trying to get out, i struggled with the lock until it opened, i blamed it on my friend, but she was on the door for only a second.i have three witnesses to verify that.

LAME! Hasn’t anyone noticed that every Spaghetti Warehouse claims to be haunted? Same for most of the Chuck E Cheese. I know groups that have investigated them, and nothing is found at all. It’s a marketing ploy.

Wow~! This forum of comments has led me to want to visit the Spaghetti Warehouse. : ) I myself live in Houston, Texas and have passed the Spaghetti Warehouse many times.: D It seems old and unique, since the building is shaped diffrently from the new buildings created. I haven’t visited, but hearing about the paranormal activities being witnesed has left me with goosebumps and shock~! o:

I’m eager to visit this place. Wow. I live here in Houston, and been passing a haunted house.I missed a BIG chance~!

Well I have been studying paranormal activities and been watching alot of haunted television shows. I’ve grown intrested and learned alot about the activities being played. Everyone should keep in mind that the Spaghetti Warehouse is a sturdy old building. Sometimes it’ll have sensitive areas, and will eventually make loud creaks and thumps. The small noises can be natural, or it could be something paranormal. Since I haven’t been there myself, I can’t surely be telling the truth. At the moment it’s just a story. Also hearing about the man dying there can be a cause. It’s a memory basically. The memory is eventually repeating itself. It’s trapt in the Warehouse. Most activity has been held in the bathroom and the second floor. Since I haven’t been there the elevator could possibly be connected by the bathroom, and all the memory is trying to find a source to escape from the area it was held at. The memory is probably confused, and now that people try to investigate this place, the memory is probably feeling threatend.

In Jane Smith’s place, she didn’t know about the hauntings, but witnessed alot of activity. In other ocassion other people are visiting and are proviking the spirit, which leaves the spirit into creating indescribable illusions. The spirit starts manipulating and wants the human OUT~! Please people. Do NOT make the spirit angry. If the spirit becomes threatend, then it will start targeting humans that are innocent to this case. If you know about the haunting, don’t go on and investigate imeediatly. Visit the place and have a good time, then try to see in anything paranormal happeneds.

I might not be right, but I left alot of possible facts. Since I’m only a 13 yeard old girl, I would be excited to visit this place~! I haven’t had anything excited to me happen yet, but maybe if I experience something paranormal at the Spaghetti Warehouse, I could probably find my answer~! : ) Can’t wait to visit~!

the second floor is really the 4th floor there are 2 floors underground I think I’m pretty there is at least one floor underground. One of the workers died in like the 1900’s by falling down am evlotar shaft and broke his neck. his wife died a year later. How no one knows how.

My father was into ghost hauntings and has taken me to the spaghetti warehouse. I can personally say I had a feeling of unease when i walked the top floor. It was very calm and quiet but at many times i would feel cold spots.

Quinta Jacscon says:

I ate here on a field trip in 9th grade. We ate in daylight on the second floor. At first wasn’t scary. The only thing that seemed menacing is the old and huge photo of that man. Some people said they heard whispers in their ears. If there were spirits here they seemed friendly. We even asked a waiter who works the evening shift (it was an over-night trip and we were there at around 7:00 P.M. near the beginning of his shift), and he said that usually the chairs are just flipped or moved, nothing seemingly evil happens. The restrooms are another story. I was not the only one, and experienced some bone-chilling things in their. In one trip to the restroom, my friend and I were fixing our makeup and looking down. Just then, I looked up and saw a man. As soon as I saw him, I screamed and he vanished. My firend didn’t seem him and was like “What!?!?!?”

yes the spaghetti warehouse is haunted….things mostly only occur during night…i always go to the toc bar (club)right across the street from it..and i will never park in the parking lot of the warehouse..of course everyone wont experience something so if u are one of those ppl who have been there but didnt see anything unusual dont go around saying that its not haunted..and too everyone that says ” why would a murder happen in a restaurant?” well duh murders happen anywhere and everywhere!!

I’m from Houston and I just wanted to say that the very first comment by Michael left on 9-30-2005 really surprised me because I actually got a picture of a blue ball of haze in the upstairs dining area next to a big picture of some guy. I didn’t really believe the stories, but right before I took the picture I said “come out, come out where ever you are,” joking around, and that is the only picture that shows anything. This happened about two weeks ago.

Angelina says:

I just wanted to say that I truely believe in ghosts and that I am a student at UHD which is directly behind the Spaghetti Warehouse(SW) on the other side of the bayou; And that my classmates and I are doing a project on “Are Ghosts Real?” So we decided to go down and take a lil walk to the SW. This was at around 9pm and there were 6 of us, 4 girls, 2guys…the girls all believers and the guys both skeptics. We had an EMF(Electric Magnetic Field) reader and a voice recorder with us on our trip. As soon as we walked up the steps our EMF was off the charts, beeping like crazy! we searched for a source but could not find one. We walked in to the dark entrance way and still off the charts, still no source. The hostest was happy to take us on a tour and told us of all the stories. People being seen in the mirrors but when they turn around no one is there, the previous owner falling down the elevator shaft and dying which is now where the womens restroom is on the 1st floor.(CREEPY) And the story of the wife roaming around on the second floor around the huge picture on the left wall towards the back. We also took digital pictures everywhere. I do want to say that some EMF’s could be explained while others could not. Also when we went to the second floor we all felt a very heavy feeling…like weighing us down. Almost like waking out in to 100% humidity…if you live in Houston you know how this feels…almost sufficating. But we trucked on and went to the basement which is very well lit and not at all the “basement feel”. We did take one more trip back upstairs to take more pics and when we turned to leave and started walking by the trolley the sound of silverware startled the laggers we all ran back…but there was no silverware…no anyone else up there to have made such a noise….weird. We still have to check the pics out for any shadows or orbs, and the voice recorder for any EVP’s (Electronic Voice Phenomenoms) and then we shall see if the rumors hold up. We plan on going back tomorrow to see again if anything happens. One last note…the believers became skeptics and the skeptics became believers…until next time.

That building is part of the old Allen’s Landing. I spent a LOT of time there during the 70’s and never heard of any kind of haunting. I think maybe this story started after it became a restaurant, maybe someone thought the place needed some hype.

On Saturday night an acting troup in Houston is staging a murder mystery dinner at the Spaghetti Warehouse. It should be a great atmosphere for this type of event. If anyone is interested in attending you can call 713-305-8117 for reservations and information….

chris says:

September 24, 2008, 10:40 pm

I’ve been to the Houston one once. I did not go to second floor, but I believe its a fun house because I saw the waiters knock over silverware and plates and act like something paranormal happen.It could be hunted on the second floor, but they do enhance the experience on the first floor.

Asuri says:

October 8, 2008, 9:07 pm

…Go to the Spaghetti Warehouse in Houston…Then go to the second floor….Then look for a torn picture of a man…That picture wasn’t torn before. Now take a picture of the picture…and keep taking pictures for as long as you can. If you’re lucky…you’ll sew a few ecto mists, or some orbs. The ghosts in The Old Spaghetti Warehouse aren’t malicious. They’re actually quite playful. Believe me, a stain used to be on the picture of the man (the torn picture) when it wasn’t torn. If it was a guy who randomly threw spaghetti and meatballs to it, or a ghost who hated the guy and wanted to throw something at it…we’ll never know. It’s only speculation…To each his own.

I went there many times.It is true that it is haunted.The ghost are very territorial and they won’t hurt you.I have seen several different ghosts there,but I am not afraid of them.They have been there since before it became a restaurant.I love the environment there..

I believe this place is haunted. I went to the eat there around 9:30PM, while I was in the restroom someone called my name, so I decided to go to the second floor with my wife. If you look in the right side of the second floor, You will see a door, which I opened and I felt something that I can’t explain.

Vic says:

November 12, 2008, 10:46 pm

Yeah, there’s a Spaghetti Warehouse in Downtown Houston. I used to work by it. Now I want to see if these allegations have any truth behind them, even if I have to visit a couple times toward closing time.

Ughh, that’s gonna be a lot of spaghetti.

My mother Virginia worked there back inn tha days and recently told me a true story event that happened to her.She worked as a cleaning lady.She said as she was on her way close to the cleaning supply area,one of her co workers said she had done a very very nice job cleaning up stairs.She didn’t know what her coworker was talking about.She then replied she was just getting started,that she hadn’t even touched upstairs.She said “look”,I’m barly getting my supplies”.The coworker said no come with me and see for yourshelf.So,she did only to find that upstairs was freakin clean like she had never seen it.I asked my mother like how?She said that the floors looked like brand new w/gloss shine.Like if the place had just opened up.Sounds crazy but my mother said she saw what she saw and of all het time being there,she had never seen the place look like that.Another time she had just cleaned her area and was upset cuz she noticed that a lot of hand prints where all over a restroom mirror.She tought it was a co worker being messing w/her,so she confronted the coworker and the coworker denied that he wasn’t the person who made the hand prints all over the restroom morror.This is a true story by a co worker named Virgina Gonzales

The Spaghetti Warehouse is located… on Commerce and Travis in Houston and no It is not closed. it has been ranked 6th in the nations Haunt Spots. It used to be an old Produce warehouse and the reason they say that it is Haunted is because during the time that it was a produce warehouse some of the employees fell down and elevator shaft, rumor is that the families of these employees are seen searching and mourning for their loved ones. It is also considered haunted due to some of the antiques that adorns the premises.
