Drop in at the Glass on any given night, and you'll be treated to a quality performance every time. In fact, that's always been the secret to their success.They only book the best, most interesting, acts on a consistent basis. The haunt at this bar is rumored to be a former bartender who was killed in a car accident. Witnesses say the ghost plays pranks on both employees and bar patrons, such as playing his favorite songs on the jukebox. One report says that when the jukebox came on by itself in the empty bar after closing time, a staff member went to unplug the unruly machine and noticed a man’s shadow cross his path. On the second floor, witnesses say ghosts have been here since before the bar moved in. The spirits are known to move objects and cause the restroom doors to get stuck.
