Lyric Theater - Just how many ghosts haunt this Mississippi theater | Haunted Atlas

Step back in time with the Haunted Atlas podcast as we explore the rich history and paranormal activity surrounding the iconic Lyric Theatre in Tupelo, Mississippi. From its origins as a vaudeville theater to its transformation into a movie theater and eventually a live performance venue, the Lyric has witnessed over a century of cultural change and tragedy.



Join us as we delve into the eerie tales of Antoine, the mischievous spirit rumored to haunt the theater. Whether appearing as a glowing light, a shadow figure, or the sound of echoing laughter, Antoine's presence is felt by staff and visitors alike. Was he the caretaker of the theater, or a child victim of the 1936 tornado that devastated Tupelo?



Explore the reports of flickering lights, phantom singing, and unexplained door banging that have left workers and guests alike unsettled. Could these occurrences be linked to the theater's storied past, or is there something more sinister at play within the Lyric's walls?



From ghostly sightings to objects mysteriously moving on their own, the Lyric Theatre is a hotspot for paranormal activity that will leave you questioning what lies beyond the realm of the living. Tune in to Haunted Atlas as we uncover the ghostly legends of the Lyric Theatre.
