    What a gorgeous old theater that has been brought back to life by owners who have poured love and a…read moreton of money into it. The sound and lights are top notch and the performers they bring in are top tier. It's awesome to see shows like Jefferson Starship, Quiet Riot, Ace Frehley, Billy Bob Thornton and The Boxmasters and Chelcie Lynn at this venue . These notable acts all come simply to be a part of the stage legacy of The Lincoln.

    The Lincoln Square Theater was built in 1916 on top of the remnants of a hotel that had burned down…read morein the exact spot. People say this theater is haunted by the ghosts of the people who died in that fire. We talked to one of the girls who works there and she told us a couple stories of things that have happened to her that make her believe this place is definitely haunted. There is a Haunted Decatur Tour that you can pay $40 to partake in, you get on a bus and drive all over the city and visit all the haunted spots. We lucked out, the tour had just arrived at the theater when we got out of dinner next door, and my friend was able to convince the tour guide to let us join in (for free!) for the Lincoln Theater part, since we were from out of town, would never be back, and wouldn't have time to take the whole tour. He was nice enough to let us. We probably only spent 15 minutes inside the theater, half of the time we stood on stage while he told us the history of all the people who had once performed here, from Houdini to the Marx Brothers to Bob Hope. The other half of the time we went backstage and looked at the famous spiral staircase that is supposed to be haunted. The tour guide had a few stories of his own about things he had experienced on the staircase. Do I think it's haunted? Who knows, I didn't experience anything, but it's cool to have visited, as this place regularly appears on lists of the most haunted places in the US.
