  • Who is Watching you While you Pee? The Ghosts of the McMenamin's Brewpub Empire

    Join Drs. Edwin and Evan as they explore four spooky and haunted locations in Portland, Oregon. Since 1974, the McMenamin brothers have been purchasing and restoring old (and sometimes abandoned) properties and turning them into brewpubs, restaurants, and hotels. In the process, the ghosts of these properties seem to be waking and, with intentions good and bad, are interacting with staff and guests. Whether it is the light in the attic at the Cornelius Pass Road House, jitterbugging ghosts at the Crystal Ballroom, lonely ghosts mourning for lost lovers at the White Eagle Saloon, or watchers in the pictures at the Edgefield Winery, these haunted locations bring a chill to many who stay there. Except for Dr. Evan. She fears nothing....
