Sunset Playhouse
Elm Grove, WI 53122
This theater is believed to be haunted by local actor Lester L. Schultz, who is nicknamed Pinky. He died of a heart attack as he was leaving the stage in 1968. He had been a former Marine and was with the playhouse since 1960. His spirit continues to be active in the theater and he even likes to play pranks like he did when he was alive.

I'm currently performing in the play The Odd Couple at Sunset. I was at the theater in the basement green room by myself late at night. I left to exit up the back stairwell. As I stepped onto the stairs I heard directly behind me a whistle. There was no one there.
I got to the theater the next day and was told about Pinky who died while performing in the play The Odd Couple.
I'm speechless.

I was acting in a show at Sunset. I was the only person left in the basement where the green rooms are. I was leaving and about to walk up the back stairs when someone whistled behind me. There was no one there.

The story is real. Pinky was my father. Passed away at the Sunset. They say he is the friendly ghost there. I’ve been there many times and I’ve got say, I’ve never seen him! But who knows?
