The Banta Inn in Tracy is famous for the spirits it serves to its bar guests, and infamous for the spirit that is supposed to haunt this popular watering hole. Whether all those rumors are the effects of the spirits in liquid form imbibed by the rumormongers, or the assertions of diehard paranormal believers is highly debatable. What is hard to ignore are the stories that are told by those who claim to have actually seen and experienced some of those rumored inexplicable supernatural occurrences.
