San Marco Theatre - Jacksonville, FL - Ghosts and Hauntings on Waymarking.com

"The San Marco Theatre offers a different sort of entertainment—movies. Finished in the same year as the Little Theatre, the San Marco Theatre was designed by nationally recognized architect Roy Benjamin, who also designed Downtown’s Florida Theatre. Instead of sticking with the Italian, Moorish and Spanish influences of San Marco’s Square, he built something that reflected the current trends at the time: Art Deco. The structure and architecture has remained basically the same, and the theatre owners have focused on restoration rather than redoing the old building.

An old tale of a former theatre manager dying in the office surfaces from time to time, and former employees speak of spooky happening after hours. Says former manager Heath Valdez, “Me and a buddy were painting the floors at night…I looked up and I swear I saw someone standing in the manager’s office looking down at us. We went up to look, because sometimes, you know people would hide in the bathrooms and stay…but there was no one there.”"
