The Story
Inside the former Butterworth mortuary, pubgoers report glasses breaking without explanation and handprints reappearing on newly cleaned windows. The building’s former funeral business supplies the setting for the haunting stories. Kells is a specific physical venue within the Pike Place neighborhood, not a separate name for the entire market.
