Alleged backstage sightings at the Madame Walker Theatre Center

The Madame Walker Theatre Center, a historic performance venue on Indiana Avenue, has been the subject of staff and performer reports of unexplained footsteps, voices, and occasional apparitional sightings in backstage and dressing-room areas. Local press articles and oral histories include these anecdotal accounts alongside the building's cultural history. These stories are presented in media and community histories as personal and contested reports rather than proven events.
