Rohs Opera House, Cynthiana, KY

Rohs (pronounced "Ross") Opera House was built in 1871 by Herman A Rohs. It was originally called Aeolian Hall and had a live production theater on the second floor, and eventually added a silent movie projector.

In 1941, the building was expanded by H.A. Rohs and his son Karle. (Karle is best known for being the grandfather of actor Chris O'Donnel) This expansion added a movie theater to make the place more modern and called Rohs Opera House.

Over the long history of the Opera House, there have been reports of haunted activity. We have found that a lot of buildings that house live theater productions end up with some type of awesome activity! The most famous ghostly apparition is the Woman in White! There have also been reports of children laughing and a man's voice.

A friend of ours, Wes Forsythe, investigates this location regularly. He has some incredible evidence that you should check out on his website ihuntghosts.com. There is video, audio, and photographic evidence. Then you can decide for yourself about this location. Still not convinced? Attend the live paraormal event on Oct. 18th!



Rohs Opera House is located in Cynthiana, KY, about 20 miles north of Lexington.
