A tattoo business that moved into the 1891 LaMar Hotel and Horseshoe Bar building reported finding a secret room during remodeling, thought to have been a hiding place for alcohol during the Prohibition. In addition, witnesses reported eerie presences, perfume scents, flickering lights, doors that lock by themselves, footsteps, and strange handprints. A psychic reportedly cleansed the space of the spirits, believed to have been one male and one playful little girl.

    Planning on doing an investigation of this location, if still active. I called the first floor buisiness, and they said that they were fine. Waiting on a response from the second and third floors.
