Vance Brand Civic Auditorium

Colorado · United States · Haunted site

They call him Edison because of what happens to the electrics. He is said to have been a janitor killed when the balcony came down during construction.

The presence at the Vance Brand Civic Auditorium in Longmont, Colorado is known as Edison, and the name comes from the electrical system rather than from anything anyone has seen.

The story attached holds that he was a janitor, killed when the balcony collapsed on him while the building was being put up.

Students using the auditorium report cold spots, lights going on and off, and noises.

A construction fatality is the most plausible category of workplace death for a building of this kind, and it is also the least documented, because a man killed before a building opens leaves no trace inside it.

The nickname is the giveaway that this is a working relationship rather than a fright. Somebody named him after Thomas Edison because of the lights, and it stuck.

The auditorium is a municipal venue in use.
