Like the story of the man who died alone of the shock of a frightful nightmare, one has to wonder who's telling the story.

One would think a haunted restaurant would bring in more customers. Talk about the easy advertising and theme nights.

That's for sure!
I'm beginning to think that much of what purports to be "news" is simply some dufus testing the waters for a novel. ;)

Story is off AP wires. I normally delete names (a) to avoid further embarassment to some; (b) giving unwarranted publicity to others.

Haunted? Right. I'll believe that when my tenderloin starts making groaning noises (before, not after).

If, during the renovation of the building, some prankster buried a small loudspeaker in the wall wired to some place offsite, and strategically hid a small light bulb behind a pinhole opening in a wall wired the same way, he could really "haunt" the place with voices and flickering shadows.

"The restaurant owners - who claim to be devout Jehovah's Witnesses I consider all Jehovah's Witnesses Anti-American, which begs the question why anyone would want to even frequent this place. Would be nice to know the name of the restaurant so as never to darken their doorstep the next time I visit the Orlando area. And isn't it against their religion to even own or operate this restaurant? Or is it one of those "do as I say, not as I do", religions?
Just as an FYI, the reason for my opinion of them is as follows,
" According to their beliefs, the Bible forbids having any false idols before God; and since all human governments are ultimately instituted by Satan, pledging to them would be a sin."

Jehovah's Witnesses are very much believers that demonic forces can effect certain places or people. I don't think this story is a hoax because I have personal contacts thru family members who are Witnesses and I know they take it seriously.
As for them being forbidden to own a restaurant..surely you are kidding? There's nothing in that religion that says that.
My family members who are Witnesses are good and decent people. I don't agree with their religion but I don't doubt their sincerity and committment to trying to lead a life based on biblical principles as they see them.
My feeling is that many Witnesses are obessed with finding the devil in too many places and manifesting evil as "demons". So this story, as odd as it sounds, probably is true.

Why delete names if it has been on the AP wires.
Did some checking. The Bozos are simply trying to break lease. Will be laughed out of court. Lawyer for tenants have made a very foolish tactical move by claiming this, because by leading this, any other potentially legitimate claim is placed in the same laughable category.
Landlord, Church Street Station, is represented by David Simmons, a very conservative state rep.
Plaintiffs don't have a chance. Courts in Orange County, Florida and not about to take judicial notice of some worker's claim of ghosts.
