Volunteer Park is one of Seattle’s quietest haunted spaces — a place shaped by Olmsted design, museum silence, warm conservatory air, and wooded paths that feel older than the rest of the city.

In this episode, we explore the park’s layered history and the subtle hauntings that linger there: shadows in galleries, echoes in stairwells, reflections that don’t match, and footsteps that move with their own rhythm.

A gentle haunting.A park that remembers.

From the quiet forest trails to the abandoned barracks, from the lighthouse fog to the military cemetery where two WWII POWs rest, this episode explores one of Seattle’s most layered and quietly powerful landscapes. Fort Lawton’s history runs deep: Indigenous land, military operations, wartime memories, and the echoes of those who never left.

Once a women’s club, then an art‑house theatre, now a consulate — and through every chapter, the Harvard Exit has kept its ghosts. This episode explores the building that haunts like a memory.

Aboard the USS Turner Joy in Bremerton, history and haunting overlap. We explore the ship’s Cold War and Vietnam legacy, walk through her steel corridors, and share chilling firsthand encounters — including voices in the lower decks and an intelligent response from a spirit named “Bobby.” A grounded, atmospheric look at one of Washington’s most active naval hauntings.

Hidden in a quiet corner of Seattle’s Georgetown neighborhood stands a house that never quite fit in. Built in 1903 with a crooked turret and mismatched angles, the Georgetown Castle has lived many lives — brothel, illegal casino, private home — and every one of them left a mark on the walls.

In this episode, we step inside the Castle’s narrow rooms and uneven hallways to explore the history, the architecture, and the subtle hauntings that have followed the house for more than a century. Footsteps on the stairs, voices in empty rooms, and the mysterious woman seen watching from the turret window all hint at a place that isn’t haunted by tragedy… but by memory.

Join us as we walk through one of Georgetown’s most unusual homes — a house that doesn’t threaten, but observes. A house that feels alive in its own quiet way.

At the end of the episode, we look ahead to our next destination: the USS Turner Joy in Bremerton, a retired warship with a very different kind of presence waiting below deck.

Hidden in Seattle’s industrial corridor sits the Georgetown Morgue — a building with a long, quiet history and a reputation built more on rumor than reality. In this episode, we explore the morgue’s true past, its unusual architecture, and the subtle, unsettling experiences reported by those who’ve worked inside. No sensational stories. No invented tragedies. Just the real atmosphere of a place shaped by decades of silence, shadows, and unanswered questions.

Episode 2 explores the hidden world beneath Seattle: the Underground. After the Great Fire, the city rebuilt itself on top of its original streets, leaving behind a maze of buried sidewalks, storefronts, and forgotten rooms.

This episode uncovers the history of how the Underground was created, the people who lived and worked there, and the hauntings that have lingered ever since — from the spirit of a bank teller near the old vault to footsteps in sealed corridors and voices in the dark.

The J&M Café is dark now. The neon signs are cold, the doors are locked, and the bar that once held a century of stories sits frozen in time. But inside this Pioneer Square landmark, the quiet doesn’t feel empty — it feels expectant.

In this season finale of Haunts of the Pacific Northwest, we step into one of Seattle’s oldest and most iconic spaces. From its beginnings in 1889 after the Great Seattle Fire, to its years as a saloon, hotel, card room, and music venue, the J&M has lived more lives than most buildings ever will. And even in its silence, the echoes remain.

Footsteps in the old hotel rooms.

A figure on the staircase.

A single piano note in the dark.

Shadows that move when no one should be inside.

And now, with a new owner and a future that’s not entirely closed, the J&M may still have more stories left to tell.
