Why Portland is cursed!
In the Old Days, You Could Go to Sleep in Portland and Wake Up in China
Legend has it, old Portlanders used to kidnap drunks from those many strip clubs, ferry them through the tunnels of the city and force them to work as sailors on ships headed to China — an act known as “Shanghaiing.” Now infamously known as the Shanghai Tunnels, the underground passages were initially intended to move goods from the ports to various locations throughout the city; now, many are supposedly haunted, but you’ll have to venture down there and find out for yourself, if you dare.
Historically , the city is a shipping port with a strong affinity for strip clubs — in fact, it has the highest number of strip clubs per capita in the country.
Portland also has a bunch of haunted locations.
