The old dollar cinema

Texas · United States · Theatre

Staff described being attacked: things thrown at them, and shadows backing them into corners. The building was blessed and a cross was put up.

This cinema at Humble, Texas sits in an area with a wider reputation, connected locally to the accounts around the 1960 overpass.

The staff reported being attacked rather than merely frightened. Objects were thrown at them, and they described being cornered by shadows.

The building was blessed with holy water and a cross was put up in it.

That response is the notable part. Most sites in this archive were investigated, filmed or turned into an attraction. This one was treated as a problem to be dealt with, by people who worked there and wanted it to stop.

Whether it did is not recorded in the account.

The language of demons and evil forces is unusual in American ghost reports, which are overwhelmingly about the dead rather than about anything else, and it tends to appear where the witnesses come from a strongly religious community.

The building has since served other purposes.
