The Story
Canfield Casino visitors tell of a woman in Victorian dress who speaks briefly before vanishing. Other accounts involve cigar smoke in smoke-free rooms, displaced objects and a garbage-can lid lifting by itself. The museum director told the Trail that activity increased after an exhibit of deceased residents’ clothing opened; staff share these experiences on ghost tours.
