This concert hall could be haunted
NewsThere are psychic concerns about the Schermerhorn Symphony Center in Nashville.
“I’ve experienced some things, I don’t know if I’ve felt them,” said Tony Meyers, chief of security for the Schermerhorn Symphony Center.
“In rehearsals, all of a sudden, lights would start flickering,” explained Giancarlo Guerrero, music director for the Nashville Symphony.
“The lights were on, they were confirmed to be on. And then 15 minutes later they weren’t on. It happened more than once on one evening,” said Meyers.
“The guys in the light booth were like, nobody’s touching anything,” said Alan Valentine, president and CEO of the Nashville Symphony…

Maybe they need to pay their light bill?
I am continually amazed at these guises, why not just permanently force the Orchestra overseas, and have the investments put with the rest of the packages already asking for more: there!? It’s always so lovely to sit and wait till the banana drops, since the grass that’s been growing greener is outdated or obsolete by now!? All of it much cheaper than hiring a Hollywood team to make a significant contribution to….
A ghost must have hired their principal oboist.
Marketing should be getting the annual Haunted Mansion concert ready.
You get a tour of the hall, a concert, and then a bag of treats for Halloween.
Do that a couple of times in the last week of OCT and you have some money in the bank.
It could be a wonderful thing. If there is such a spiritual existence, isn’t it ok for Kenneth to just stop by and say hello? Think of it as being remembered, and saying thanks for this concert hall. I like to think that may be possible.
Phoey. Just needs a new box.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE.
Likely explanations….
3. Actually haunted
2. Faulty equipment and incomplete reporting.
1. Fabricated story for clicks and attention.
It wasn’t that many years ago that Schermerhorn Hall was flooded and a great deal of damage was done. Anyone remember that? So the water did damage to the electrical system that’s never been repaired.
That was my first thought as well. However the linked article says this lights flickering business began in 2006 whereas the river flooding occurred in 2010, four years after the hall opened. So it’s all still unexplained…
Schermerhorn’s ghost ought to haunt the story author’s computer to take revenge for outrages upon the language: “step foot” is horrendous, since “step” is an intransitive word. The idiom is properly “set foot”.
Or is this battle already lost, like the failure to properly distinguish between the transitive “lay” and intransitive “lie”?
I’m in the orchestra and it’s pretty rare for something to happen with the lights and so forth. We did have a fire alarm go off in rehearsal a couple months ago but I think most concert halls have issues from time to time. I’ve heard Cincinnati’s music hall was haunted because it was built on a cemetery or something like that. In any case, this story looks like it was meant to be posted around Halloween because there is an ad for the princess bride, which we played in late October.
engage the services of a Master Electrician with solid experience in performance halls.
Whether or not it’s haunted, there are plenty of skeletons in plenty of closets.
They should all hold up their hands in the air and wave them around: many hands make light work.
Oh dear! Well, at least your comment is an illuminating one.
