Pine Street Saloon featured in Travel Channel show

–The Travel Channel just wrapped up filming an episode of its show, “Dead Files,” in Paso Robles. The subject of the episode was the notoriously haunted Pine Street Saloon.

Ron French and his mom, Pat French, own the old two-story wooden building at 1234 Pine Street. During the 1880s there were over a dozen saloons and bars between 13th and 10th streets. Pine Street is one of the oldest operating bars in California.

French said that he was able to provide 25 people to speak with the producers who have had ghostly experiences within the bar, as well as some footage caught on his night-vision cameras.
