Geocache Description:

This cache is part of a series of geocaches placed for the Haunted Hollow VIII event (GC6JDDG) on 8/20/2016 at Sleepy Hollow State Park. The theme for this year's event is Haunted Places in Michigan.


The Calumet Theatre is a historic theatre located at 340 Sixth Street in the town of Calumet, Michigan. It is also known as the Calumet Opera House or the Calumet Civic Auditorium. It is integral to, but a separate unit of, the Calumet municipal building. The structure was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1971 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.

Some of the visitors to the Calumet Theatre hope to catch a glimpse of the reputed ghost of the theatre, Madame Helena Modjeska. The story of the ghost first emerged in 1958, when actress Adysse Lane claimed that the ghost of Madame Modjeska appeared to her during a performance when Lane had forgotten her lines. Since then, unexplainable happenings have occurred. Many people have heard music and felt cold air from nowhere.

The cache is a medium snaplock container hidden in a typical way. Please access this cache from the trails in the park, please do not attempt this cache from Shepardsville Rd.

Sleepy Hollow is a State Park, so either a Michigan DNR Recreation Passport or a fee is required to enter the park in a motor vehicle.

Please also be aware that hunting is allowed in this park certain times of the year, so please be careful and dress appropriately when hunting is allowed.

Congrats to TPM2013 and 1RedLadyBug on winning the FTF!
