PNW Haunts & Homicides)What happens when you toss two hilarious Pacific Northwest history podcasts into Portland's creepiest tunnels with beer, ghosts, and a whole lot of sass? This. You get this glorious chaos.In this unhinged crossover episode, Shea and Jody from Rainy Day Rabbit Holes team up with Caitlyn and Cassie from PNW Haunts & Homicides for a deep, dark dive beneath the streets of Portland, Oregon. From damp brick passageways to flannel-wearing apparitions, the crew recounts their visit to the Shanghai Tunnels Tour at Old Town Pizza & Brewing, while also dissecting the problematic roots of the term “shanghaied,” historic embellishments, and whether ghost pee is a thing. Expect history, hilarity, hauntings—and maybe some drunken shenanigans. 

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into the dark and eerie world of Portland's Shanghai Tunnels. Once a hub for illegal human trafficking and forced labor, these underground passageways have long since become infamous for their ghostly legends. Were these tunnels truly haunted by the spirits of sailors and laborers who met their untimely ends, or are the reports of paranormal activity simply the result of chilling folklore and environmental factors? Join us as we unravel the verified history of these tunnels, dive into eyewitness accounts, and explore the ongoing debate between skeptics and believers. From disembodied voices to shadowy apparitions, the Shanghai Tunnels remain one of the most fascinating mysteries of the Pacific Northwest. Get ready for a deep dive into history, mystery, and the supernatural.

CNBC 10 Portland, America's Top 10 Most Haunted Cities. Portland, Oregon, holds the tenth spot on CNBC's list of America's Top 10 Most Haunted Cities, as highlighted in a 2010 report. Positioned on the Columbia River and featuring fault lines beneath its surface, Portland provides an ideal setting for supernatural encounters, according to the article. The city's haunting history is deeply rooted, with tales of the infamous Shanghai Tunnels dating back to the 1800s. These subterranean passages, concealed beneath the city's buildings and streets, were allegedly used to abduct individuals and transport them to Asia as slaves or prostitutes. Legend has it that saloon owners, after intoxicating unsuspecting victims, would send them through secret hatches, never to be seen again. Reports of ghostly occurrences during tours include whistling, mysterious fragrances, and even physical touches. Among Portland's renowned haunted sites is the White Eagle Café, formerly a brothel, hotel, and boarding house. Employees have recounted eerie experiences such as the scent of smoke in the absence of fire, overwhelming wafts of cheap perfume, and objects seemingly defying gravity. CNBC 10 Portland, America's Top 10 Most Haunted Cities. The Old Portland Underground, colloquially known as the Shanghai Tunnels, forms a network of passages beneath Portland's Old Town Chinatown and connects to the main business district. Initially constructed to facilitate the movement of goods from docked ships to basement storage, the tunnels have been linked to stories of organized crime and shanghaiing practices, though some historians dispute the more sensational claims. Nestled near the scenic Willamette River, the McMenamins White Eagle Saloon and Hotel stands as a popular spot for Portlanders. With a century-long history, the saloon has retained its original purpose while evolving into a cafe and hotel. Originally named the B. Soboleski & Company Saloon, it housed industrial supplies before being transformed into a social hub by Polish immigrants William Hryszko and Barney Soboleski. CNBC 10 Portland, America's Top 10 Most Haunted Cities. Throughout its existence, the White Eagle Saloon faced rumors of illicit activities, including gambling and prostitution, to stay afloat amidst competition. The Hryszko brothers, sole owners after Soboleski's departure, expanded the saloon, fueling speculations of accommodating their clandestine endeavors. Prohibition in 1915 forced a reassessment of business practices, with rumors circulating about an underground tunnel linking the Shanghai tunnels to the White Eagle Saloon for illegal alcohol transportation. CNBC 10 Portland, America's Top 10 Most Haunted Cities. Post-prohibition, sailors became frequent patrons, allegedly participating in illicit activities and engaging in poker games with hired companions. Dark rumors persisted about men being "Shanghaied" from the saloon through underground tunnels and back to the docks, highlighting the pervasive mysteries surrounding the White Eagle Saloon, even if concrete evidence remains elusive.

So, Portland, OR may not be "small town America", but sometimes a haunt is just too god to pass up, and with claims like most haunted place on earth, how could we say no? So down we go, to the Shanghai Tunnels beneath Chinatown in Portland, where they had a little bit of everything. Gambling, drinking, prostitution rings, and kidnapping for enslavement.

In the glory days of Portland shanghaiing, sailors were 'helped back aboard ship' on the city streets; there was no need for a tunnel to sneak them down to the docks. But the tunnels under the saloons and streets were useful for lots of other shanghaiing-related activities ... (Portland, Multnomah County; 1890s) (For text and pictures, see https://offbeatoregon.com/1905d.shanghai-tunnels-based-on-true-story-549.html)

If you have an interest in the history of Portland, Oregon, the odds are that you have heard of the Shanghai Tunnels. If you are interested in the paranormal, then odds are that you have heard they are haunted. In this episode, Matt talks about how commerce, tall tales, and xenophobia collide with notions of innocence and victimization in developing the folklore concerning these subterranean features.

On this week's episode I'm taking you to one of our favorite places in all of Portland, Kell's Irish Restaurant and Pub. When Portland Oddities & Curiosities Expo rolls around in the fall you will find us there at least one of the nights we are town. We love the food, drinks, and atmosphere, the ghosts are honestly a bonus. This place is connected to the Shanghai Tunnels so you know it's spiritually busy. But the best known ghost has nothing to do with the tunnels and might actually not have anything to do with Kell's.    So lets get into shall we? Grab yourself a cup of tea, maybe something with roses, make sure the doors are locked, and the sage is close by. I have a story to tell you.   Sources https://www.hauntedrooms.com/oregon/portland/haunted-places https://psuvanguard.com/portland-haunts/  https://www.portlandoregon.gov/fire/article/384861  https://overcupbooks.com/blogs/blog-1/the-most-haunted-pubs-for-halloween https://www.davidcampbellmemorial.org https://www.oregonencyclopedia.org/articles/cast_iron_buildings_in_portland/#.Y7oI1i2B1pQ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodney_Glisan https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/102820161/rodney-lawrence-glisan https://offbeatoregon.com/1402a.opium-culture-portland-urban-underworld.html https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/the-vibrator/ https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/89595014/david-campbell https://oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83025138/1922-12-21/ed-1/seq-26/ocr/

On this week's episode we are going dark and discussing a heavy hitter in the paranormal community, the infamous Shanghai Tunnels of Portland. Trigger warning. It's real dark. Name a bad thing and it will probably be mentioned today. Human trafficking, sexual assault, drugging, murder, cannibalism, racism. Yeah there's a lot today. I discovered in my travels in the PWN that there are actually Shanghai Tunnels in Portland, Astoria, and Seattle. I thought this was fascinating! But the Portland ones are probably the most famous amongst paranormal enthusiasts because they have been seen on every ghost show basically ever. There is a lot of history to get through, don't worry it's very dark and gruesome. I was so upset when I didn't get to go the first time I was in Portland so I made sure to go this time, and I'll probably go again this year too! I even had a ghostly experience that I'll tell you all about at the end. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/myhauntedlife/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/myhauntedlife/support

The Portland underground is known as the Shanghai Tunnels. Many of these tunnels have collapsed and are in disrepair. But in the late 19th century, Portland was referred to as the Forbidden City of the West. Tales and legends of able-bodied men being drugged, kidnapped, sold to sea captains, and forced to work on ships bound to Shanghai, came alive here. From 1850 to 1941 the fear of being “shanghaied” or crimped screamed the loudest.

We start the episode explaining the altar of truth and our presents from Zach. Tori covers the Oregon Vortex and the weirdness contained therein. This is one of those mystery spots that are found around the country just waiting to take tourist's money. Can you say optical illusions? Next up we get a short history lesson about the Shanghai Tunnels in Portland and the current ghostly inhabitants. Press ganging, crimping, and shanghaiing was used to kidnap sailors to serve on long sea voyages against their wills. Tori was this many years old when she learned where the term “Shanghaiing” came from. Also #ghostkidsaredicks.  Krysti continues on smartly with ghost stories! Krys got to go for the spook factor in honor of spooky season. The Ghost of Fiddlers Rock is a Tennessee ghost of renown and Krys tells his story. Moral of the story, don't piss off snakes. Several other tales stem from Fiddler's Rock. Last but not least we have the story of Amy of Lick Road. Several versions of the story exist. More tropes ahead.

Beneath the pristine and proper streets of the progressive city of Portland Oregon, are buried tunnels with a shady history. They were once used for moving goods from the waterfront to the stores without having to crowd the attractive streets, however, those “goods” varied greatly from foreign goods to locally caught and imprisoned slaves. The true depths of Portland's tunnels are being buried under simplification and shame, by those afraid to unveil the history of what their business and the city of Portland is really built on. Which is a lucrative white and sex slave trade, as well as the ongoing opium war with China. So let's explore the real reason these tunnels were built and how they helped Portland grow into the charming cosmopolitan it is today...   Patreon.com/sandupodcast Special Music By: I|B: https://linktr.ee/Ib333 I|B's Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/76Un82qfmppF910ZvetTlh?si=Azv883S2Sn6G469-CKZ5dw&utm_source=copy-link&dl_branch=1 Merch: truecrimeguys.threadless.com Email: sandupodcast@gmail.com Social Media: @sandupodcast EVERYTHING TRUE CRIME GUYS: https://linktr.ee/Truecrimeguysproductions   Sources: https://youtu.be/hVIfZBeMlWo https://youtu.be/THJNPIGT6xc https://youtu.be/lvh6FX9jIDg https://youtu.be/DoO9wxxMceo https://www.portlandtunnels.com/index.html https://www.portlandtunnels.com/historical-background-of-portlands-shady-past.html https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/hong-kong-ceded-to-the-british https://www.travelportland.com/attractions/portland-shanghai-tunnels/#:~:text=The%20Shanghai%20Tunnels%20were%20used,of%20streetcars%2C%20traffic%20and%20mud.

Dave Mylet's Digital History elective at Tacoma's School of Industrial Design, Engineering and Arts (IDEA) gives students the chance to explore local history through hands-on, project-based curriculum. Their first project as a class was to research, script and record a podcast episode for the Tacoma Historical Society. In this episode, Dylan O'Catherine explores the true story behind the legend of Tacoma's "Shanghai Tunnels." Dylan O'Catherine is a 17 year old senior at iDEA High School. They enjoy music art, and memes - which are an art form in Dylan's opinion.

There's a lot of haunted activity in the state of Oregon. The Crooked Key Podcast takes a look at the town of Corvallis and the Shanghai Tunnels. Sources: https://www.visitcorvallis.com/articles/haunted-corvallis https://www.corvallisadvocate.com/2014/corvallis-hauntings/

If y'all don't know, Portland is sometimes referred to as the Forbidden City of the West → and if you've ever wondered why I think this story should help clear some things up. Underneath downtown Portland is a series of 150-year-old tunnels that connect the basements of the city's oldest buildings to the Willamette River, as well as Portland's Chinatown. Portland was a small town, at the time, but it had a large port that could support many ships. Many cargo ships sailed for many months across the Pacific before unloading their cargo in Portland. The tunnels were built by Chinese workers during the time when Chinatown was the center for trade business. The tunnel's original design was for transporting goods from cargo ships to the inner city. However, as you can imagine, the tunnels started being used for more nefarious purposes such as illegal alcohol transportation during prohibition, Shanghaiing, and even used to kidnap and sell women. And as you can see where I'm going with this, it is reportedly haunted by the ghosts who were killed here. So join us as we explore the miles and miles of tunnels underneath Portland... Stay safe out there.

Naomi and Bri cover the history and folklore of the Shanghai Tunnels in Portland, Oregon.

In the glory days of Portland shanghaiing, sailors were 'helped back aboard ship' on the city streets; there was no need for a tunnel to sneak them down to the docks. But the tunnels under the saloons and streets were useful for lots of other shanghaiing-related activities ...
