Folks say the balcony is where strange voices may be heard, and odd things happen with the lighting system here as well. The reason? Rumor has it that a worker once died in a boiler-room explosion, and his ghost still hangs around.

Excuse me I am in the main group the preforms there and I have heard or seen anything and I have been there for 7 years straight. Just saying the truth
i worked there a couple weeks ago and heard foot steps in the mens bathroom on both floors. Also the man was whispering.
I was a patron watching the Pensacola Orchestra and noticed about 4-6 dark figure shapes that danced around in the upper back left corner facing the stage on November 5th, 2016. They seemed to enjoy the music and enjoyed the orchestra. The shapes never really left the corner area, but seemed to be swaying with the music.
Growing up as a child my dad managed theatre’s and would sometimes manage the Saenger to relieve Mr Bowles who was the long time manager of the Saenger in the 70″s when they were playing movies like The Godfather!
The only way to turn the lights on in the theatre at that time was to turn them on at the light switch box back stage and then you had to walk up through the theatre to turn on lobby lights
Ive been there when we would turn on the lights get half way up the theatre and the lights would go out on their own!
Ive seen rigging ropes float down from the fly in the ceiling , not drop but ease down like it was being lowered ..
again no one was on the cat walks to lower it !!!
Mr. Bowles yelled to the supposed ghost to Stop turning the lights off and the curtains on the stage blew up as if someone was running past them
I was always told that this was a former projectionist that died in the theatre from drinking himself to death!!
Now I do know that I was about 10 years old when I saw all this and they could have been just messing with me , but Ive heard other stories from others who have worked there when all they did was play movies that have told stories that were about the same ,
I know I never saw anyone , or heard voices or footsteps , Only the things I just described !
If I remember the projectionist name that died there Robert
but thats been 45 years ago , I’m lucky if I remember my own children’s names lol
