Merman's Ghost

I've been dying to ask this on the board for a while, so I will. I remember reading that Ethel Merman's ghost haunts The Imperial Theatre. Is this true and can someone elaborate?

apparently she's looking for a giant W, with money buried underneath

It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story... AGATHA CHRISTIE, Life magazine, May 14, 1956

I believe it. When I saw Les Mis there, the actress playing Eponine tried to belt "On My Own". I think the Merm possessed her.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

"Too late... Dick Tracy's ghost got it all"

Um, as far as I can remember, Dick Tracy wasn't in the movie "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Word".

I actually feel bad. I don't know the story, but yes, I have heard that, and I'm sorry, jv92, that everyone thinks it's a joke and won't bother being helpful and recounting the legend. Can somebody actually help out and elaborate on the supposed legend (i.e. any weird happenings, etc.)?

I personally/obviously don't believe, but these sort of creepy things are just so dang cool.

That was a Big W, and it was Spencer Tracy.

You know in a way I owe it all to you. I thought losing you was a blow I could never withstand. Look how far I have come without anyone holding my hand. The day you broke my heart you handed me the chance to make a brand new start. You helped me find my way. There's still so much to learn. So many dreams to earn. But, even if I crash and burn ten times a day. I think I'm here to stay. I'm gonna find my way.

Never heard this one, but all of these theatre hauntings are fascinating! I believe Chuck Wagner, or w/e was in Dracula as the standby, is publishing, or has published, a book on this subject.
