Olivas Adobe Haunting

This adobe was the scene of a home-invasion robbery in which the thieves got away with some $35,000 in gold, as well as a pair of earrings literally ripped from the ears of Teodora Olivas, the matriarch. The spirit is believed to be that of one of the Olivas daughters, Dominga, who died during childbirth, but could possibly beTeodora herself. The apparition can be seen wearing a black-dress roaming the grounds. Note: Special thanks go to Richard Senate and Ventura Historian, Glenda Jackson, in regards to this story.

Ventura City Hall Haunting

Two ghosts are known to haunt Ventura City Hall, the first is the possible ghost of “Ma” Duncan, a lady convicted of killing an in-law. Her spirit is known to be focused mostly on making life uncomfortable for police officers and is blamed for unusual malfunctions with the chamber’s emergency telephone line. The other spirit is an as-yet unidentified ghost lady who is dressed in blue clothing from the 1940’s. She has been seen lingering near the doors of the third-floor elevator.

Bella Maggiore Inn Haunting

Haunted by the lone ghost of Sylvia Michaels, a former prostitute. She was found dead of an apparent suicide (She hung herself in a closet). Her spirit has engaged in poltergeist activities ever since.

As I understand it, the inn runs ghost tours there, check it out sometime and tell me how it was.
