A child’s laugh echoes through an empty theater. Donuts are left as offerings backstage. Actors refuse to go on stage without paying tribute to a six-year-old ghost named Bobby.

In downtown Albuquerque stands the legendary KiMo Theatre, one of the most beautiful and unusual movie palaces in America. Built in 1927 in the stunning Pueblo Deco style, the KiMo survived fire, financial ruin, near-demolition, and decades of urban decay. But its most famous resident isn't an actor, musician, or movie star.

It's a little boy who died during a horrific explosion in 1951.

Tonight, we explore the tragic death of Bobby Darnall, the strange rituals performers still follow to keep his spirit happy, the famous "donut shrine" hidden backstage, and the surprising investigation that revealed some of the KiMo's most famous ghost stories may have been built on a lie. Is Bobby really haunting the theater, or is the KiMo preserving something even more powerful than a ghost?
