The Harvard Exit Theatre is a twin cinema located in Seattle, Washington. It was built in 1925 by the Woman's Century Club,[1][2] which still meets there at midday on the third Friday of the month.[3] The building was sold in 1968 on the condition that the lobby not be altered, which it has not been to this day.[3] In that same year it was converted into a cinema, and reports began to surface that the building was haunted by a woman in 1920s garb.[1][2][4] However, reports ceased in 1987.[2] The theatre is currently owned by Osteen & Harvard Investments and managed by Landmark Cinemas.[5]
