Is Oxford Saloon haunted?
The record holds 1 claim, 1 legend, 1 named entity — filed as reported, not verified. The heaviest filing is classed local folklore. The archive documents the claim; it takes no position on the ghost.
The record — long form
The Oxford is the ten ghosts — the 1900 building that's the saloon, the deaths that the count claims. The Henry is the policeman — the bouncer who was knifed breaking up the fight, the ladies' room pincher that he became. The upstairs are the women — the Kathleen in the purple, the Amelia in the closet.
The tub is the artifact — the claw-foot where Kathleen was found, the decapitation that's the legend. The investigations were the tape — the 'You'll die' that the ghost society got, the photos with the figures. The Oxford is the layered — the dry goods under the saloon, the ghosts in the offices above.
The file keeps the Oxford: the 1900 building, the Henry murder, the Kathleen tub, and the ten ghosts.
The Oxford is the archive's Snohomish file — the saloon with the roster.
Why this file matters
The Oxford is the archive's Snohomish file — the pinching policeman's bar.
A saloon keeps its dead — the file's suggestion being that the Oxford's hold is the names: the Henry who was knifed, the Kathleen in the tub, and the ten that the count claims.
