Real haunted places Bobby Mackeys music world Wilder, KY Bobby Mackeys Music World is a nightclub and honky tonk that is currently owned by country singer Bobby Mackey. According to urban legends and modern folklore, the location allegedly houses a gateway to hell and is haunted by spirits including Pearl Bryan, whose corpse was found in a field 2.5 miles from the site in Fort Thomas, Kentucky. Unsubstantiated stories include Bryans murderers being devil worshippers who, according to local talk, cursed the location and vowed to haunt everyone involved in prosecuting the case. Also according to urban legend, sometime in the 1930s a pregnant dancer named Johanna committed suicide with poison backstage on the catwalk at the Latin Quarter club, which then operated inside the building currently housing Bobby Mackeys. Rumor has it that this deed was carried out after her father murdered her lover Robert Randall, a singer at the club, by hanging him in the dressing room, though investigations have failed to find police reports of this event ever having taken place. Furthermore, scholarly research into property records, newspapers, and court files has failed to substantiate most of the fanciful claims made regarding the sanguine history of the location, and no connection between the site of Bobby Mackeys and the Pearl Bryan murder has ever been established. Most who have studied the Bryan slaying have concluded any claims to either Bryans death or dismemberment at the Wilder, Kentucky structure are unsupported by a foundation of hard fact, and place these popular accounts into the realm of the tall tale. According to Bobby Mackey, the site was originally used as a slaughterhouse in the early 19th century and later torn down for construction of a roadhouse that took on various names, such as The Brisbane, until he purchased it in 1978. While many people believe this is folklore and urban legend Im not sure if I believe this story id have to go there to find out for myself. Do you believe this story or believe its just legend? Misery:)
