"Ghost Adventures," a popular Travel Channel show, shot an episode right here on Long Island. The filming took place in 2013 and since then has put Katie's on the map. This is one of the oldest buildings in the Smithtown area.
It's said the ghost that hits the bar most frequently is a former local named Charlie Klein, who was a bootlegger and bartender in the 1920s, as well as a former owner of the hotel that burned down.
After some research, it was found out that Klein committed suicide in 1933 in fear of going to jail after selling a drink to an IRS man.
Perhaps you might want to stop on by for a quick drink and no worries if your an IRS man, it's all good ;)
Besides possibly encountering a ghost or two you can also check out some great bands and in general great company.
