Spirits of Downtown

Are you ready to experience the SPIRITS OF DOWNTOWN? Maybe you’ve heard the stories about the spirits that reside in downtown’s historic buildings, or maybe you haven’t…yet.

In October 2020, we released our Spirits of Downtown series, where we filmed paranormal investigations of the B&M Building, a former downtown thrift store, the Bob Hope Theater, and Hotel Stockton in hopes of finding evidence of paranormal activity. What do we find? There’s only one way to find out: sit back, relax, and get ready for a hauntingly good time.
