Louie Stroiber has a thing for plush stuffed squirrels, arranging items to his own peculiar liking and testing the patience of the newer employees at the bookstore where he supposedly takes up current residence. The problem is, Louie has been dead since Nov. 1, 1977. Marshfield Book World manager Amy Hagar swears he haunts her store.

In the 1920’s, the building at 315 S. Central Avenue was a grocery store. Then it became a barber shop, which Louie owned an operated. According to Amy, Louie died of a heart attack in the back of his shop, which is the middle of the book store today.

Louie is not a malevolent ghost because Amy and some of the other long time employees enjoy his company. However, he loves to tease the new-hires with his antics.
