Moon River Brewing Company

The Moon River Brewing Company was first used as a hotel in 1821. Named the City Hotel, it was the first hotel in Savannah. In 1851, Peter Wiltberger bought the hotel and put a live lion and lioness on display in order to attract business. in 1864, just before Sherman and his troops arrived, the hotel closed down. In the early 1900's, it was used as a warehouse for lumber and coal. In the 1960's, the building was converted into a printing press and office supply store. In 1979, Hurricane David ripped the roof off the building and the store closed down. There is a report that another brewing company attempted to use the building, but was driven out by paranormal activity. In 1995, Moon River Brewing Company renovated the building.

There have been several reports of hauntings in this building. Bottles have been thrown off the shelves, and there have been reports of a noisy spirit named Toby in the billiard room. Witnesses have seen a woman walk up to the bar around closing time. They say she kind of faded out towards her feet as she walked up to the bar and disappeared.
