Years ago I did a walk through of the old abandoned Sun Theater down by the Fox. This would have been the perfect place for a high school Halloween party growing up. It was abandoned and creepy.

There was evidence that someone had been squatting there in the dressing room offstage.

Hilariously, there was also evidence that this squatter had been contending with a local crackhead: a cut off broomstick hanging by a lanyard from a nail on the wall with the words "crackhead-be-gone-stick" written on the wall nearby.

That’s insane 😭 this is why our historical buildings burn down sadly. It’s such an issue. The orpheum theatre is now owned by a church that lets it rot, and don’t have to pay taxes on it. I see people squatting in there often as a friend lives across the road from it
