Bar in Houston; research record.

Brewery Tap is a bar in Houston, Texas. Bar in Houston; research record. HauntHunt files it with haunted places. Ask the file who haunts it and it answers: William. The dossier holds 1 reported claim, 1 legend and 1 named or described presence — all telling, no verified spine yet, and the file says so plainly. Access details are unverified — research before visiting.

The Tap is the crushed — the 'William' that's the ghost's name, the 'barrels' that's the killer's form. The 'saved bartender' is the kind — the 'friendly' that's the spirit's type, the '1920s' that's the death's decade. The 'Allen's Landing' is the nearby — the 'Plymouth Rock' that's the founders' step, the '1836' that's the city's birth.
The 'crypt below' is the buried — the 'Donnellan' that's the vault's name, the 'cannonball' that's the death's cause. The 'Magnolia Brewery' is the housed — the '1912' that's the building's date, the 'prohibition killed' that's the industry's end. The Tap is the kept — the '1987' that's the bar's birth, the 'EMF' that's the customer's tool.
The file keeps the Tap: the crushed William, the kind ghost, the nearby landing, and the kept bar.
Brewery Tap is the archive's Texas file — the bar built on a crypt.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
Brewery Tap is the archive's Texas file — the ghost that saves lives.
A bar keeps its dead — the file's suggestion being that the Tap's hold is the layered: the 'brewery' that's the building's past, the 'crypt' that's the foundation's secret, and the 'William' that's the resident's name.
