The House of Frank N Stein, 726 E. Center St., closed this weekend. The Riverwest bar and restaurant opened in 2005 inside a former funeral home.
Frank N Stein was known for cheap drinks, hot dogs and karaoke inside a kitschy, "spooky" setting. The building is 100 years old and rumored to be haunted.
Ismail Ozcan and Susan Van Schaik co-owned the bar. According to Frank N Stein regular Matthew Eells, "Ismail said he just couldn't do it any more. He's tired, bills are due, business is down."
Molly Snyder started writing and publishing her work at the age 10, when her community newspaper printed her poem, "The Unicorn.” Since then, she's expanded beyond the subject of mythical creatures and written in many different mediums but, nearest and dearest to her heart, thousands of articles for OnMilwaukee.
Molly is a regular contributor to FOX6 News and numerous radio stations as well as the co-host of "Dandelions: A Podcast For Women.” She's received five Milwaukee Press Club Awards, served as the Pfister Narrator and is the Wisconsin State Fair’s Celebrity Cream Puff Eating Champion of 2019.
