Smith Tower hauntings

Completed in 1914, Smith Tower at the southern edge of Pioneer Square is one of Seattle's oldest skyscrapers and has been the subject of recurring reports of unexplained noises and alleged sightings by staff and visitors. These accounts have appeared in local news and guidebooks as examples of reported hauntings tied to an early 20th‑century commercial building. Claims of supernatural activity at Smith Tower are anecdotal and remain debated.
