There were inexplicable things had happened in Pike Place Market such as the sound of footsteps without any people; scent of old-lady perfume filled the office of the market; a woman disappeared into the wall; the strands of beads hanging on a wall hook came crashing to the floor; ... Originally, there was a funeral home found by Edgar Butterworth very close the market. There were many funerals took place. Then the owner moved it to Capitol Hill. The next business took place in the building was an Irish pub of Patrick. There were also unexplained things happened then. Avenue One, the restaurant of Arnie, Cafe Sophie were the next two business took place in the same building. All the owners realized the haunting spirit around their business place. Yaeger, a shaman, said the building sits on an old Suquamish Indian burial ground. There are 19 fully ghosts inside the old mortuary. Patrick came up with an idea of making the restaurant a place for the ghosts to be heard by everyone by telling them the history and the ghostly things that really happened.
B. Personal response:
This article scares me. It seems like the Pike Place Market is crowded but based on the article it's a really haunted place. The part of the reason is that close to it there was a mortuary. But I think the inexplicable things happened because there is something that the ghosts want to tell us. It might be the injustices that they had experienced or something like that. Anyway, I don't think it's a made up story.
