Portland has all those underground tunnels, historically used to shanghai men into serving as crewmen on ships.

The tunnels start across the street from voodoo, right?

That's one PoE. They're all over. Dark history in PDX- these tunnels were used in human-trafficking way back in the day. Random bar-flies would get drugged or passout from alcohol, then wake up on workships as slaves. The mayor would also use the tunnels at night to secretly travel to brothels. The roots of Portland = human trafficking.

Voodoo Donuts? I'm not local, just remembered the tunnels and researched on the web. Couldn't find a decent map.

Lanny Swerdlow- owner of the aforementioned club- has a connection to Frank Faillace (owner of Dantes, across the street from Voodoo Donuts). Swerdlow was a previous owner of building that Dantes now resides.

Crap- see that’s the problem... there’s very little information on it. Let me see what I can dig up via the web.
