Is Seligman haunted?

The record holds 1 claim — filed as reported, not verified. The heaviest filing is classed anecdotal. The archive documents the claim; it takes no position on the ghost.

The record — long form

Seligman is the bypassed — the 'September 22' that's the death's date, the '2:30 p.m.' that's the remembered minute. The 'barber fought' is the saved — the 'Angel' that's the founder's name, the '1987' that's the association's year. The 'first historic' is the won — the 'designation' that's the state's gift, the 'birthplace' that's the claim's form.

The 'Cars borrowed' is the filmed — the 'Radiator Springs' that's the inspiration's frame, the 'Pixar' that's the borrower's name. The 'Snow Cap' is the joked — the 'dead chicken' that's the diner's gag, the 'family' that's the shop's crew. Seligman is the neon — the '160 miles' that's the stretch's length, the 'longest' that's the route's rank.

The file keeps Seligman: the bypassed minute, the barber's fight, the borrowed town, and the neon strip.

Seligman is the archive's Arizona file — the town that saved Route 66.

Why this file matters

Seligman is the archive's Arizona file — the death and rebirth of the Mother Road.

A town keeps its barber — the file's suggestion being that Seligman's hold is the fought: the '2:30' that's the death's memory, the 'Angel' that's the savior's name, and the 'historic' that's the win's title.
