  Pensacola

  First, we have the Pensacola Light at NAS Pensacola. Legend has it that the light keeper was murdered and that there is a reoccurring blood stain on the floor where he died. Ghost Hunters and TAPS have both filmed episodes there.

  Second up, is the Pensacola Cultural Center, the home of the Pensacola Little Theater. Previously it was the Escambia County Court of Record Building, and houses operational gallows on it's third floor not used since the 1920s which are still in place today. The building was also home to the Pensacola Jail until 1955.

  Bartlesville

  There's several around the Bartlesville area. I was never big on them, but I remember hearing them often as a teenager around this time. I may not have these stories straight, but here's a couple.

  There's a train track/road intersection south of Bartlesville on Gap Road where supposedly a car or bus of children got stuck on and they all died. If you park at the bottom of the hill and put your car in neutral your car will actually roll up hill and on the way down cross the tracks. It's actually pretty crazy to do and it really does feel like you're rolling uphill. We used to do this pretty often in my car.

  There was an old partially burnt down house somewhere in the area that people called "Catman's house" where, I believe the story goes, a disfigured man lived. A mob one night set the house on fire. I'm not sure if he died or not in the story. I had friends that once went and spent the night there. If I remember right they've torn down the house since then.

  Another one on Gap Road is that you can see ghosts and nooses hanging from the tress lining the road where they used to hang African Americans.

  Also, I always heard of "cry baby bridge" where you could hear the cries of a baby left by a single mother, but I'm pretty sure that's just a common tale told in nearly every city.

  EDIT: The Catman story was the Labadie House. That should point you in the right direction.

  Asylum 49

  This building started out as a hospital, I believe dating back to WW1 or 2, and operated until 2004. Part of the building was used as a nursing home until 2016. Local residents have said that it has always been a bad hospital. One man said he broke his arm as a child, but his family opted to drive the 45 minutes to Salt Lake to get him medical attention. The people who own the haunted house do investigations and tours, Grimm Ghost Tours will also have events here. It was featured on Ghost Adventures.

  Lots of activity here. This building has a very charged energy. Possible demonic entities (I was told four by a psychic on my investigation). On our last investigation we heard a child singing very clearly.

  Prairie St. John Mental Hospital

  One that I've never seen mentioned on any haunted places list is Prairie St. John, the mental hospital here in Fargo. I wouldn't recommend checking it out because people obviously are there 24/7 and there would be no real way of investigating, but my dad, mom, and a few other people I know (including myself) have spent time there or worked there. It used to be a nunnery back in the day. My dad, who is a complete skeptic, told us about the underground tunnels between the buildings there. He said one night he was walking along doing his duties and had to cross over to the other building, so he took the underground tunnel and in the darkness a nun walked right past him. She said a nice hello which my dad returned, he turned to check if she was there when he passed and she was gone. By all accounts there's something off about the place. Seriously sad it's a poor place for investigation though.

  Another place to checkout might be Bonanzaville in Fargo which is where a lot of the oldest buildings in the area were moved to are and now stored, along with large museum section and tons of old cars. The amount of history there is unreal and there have been several reports by employees of hauntings, footsteps, footprints/handprints, the works.

  The last place I would suggest is Fort Abercrombie just south of Fargo, if you happen to go by at night or visit when it's getting dark in the fall the vibe is strange. It was the site of some battles and there are a couple original buildings from the time still there. Never heard reports of it being haunted but I personally feel strange there.

  All that said I've never really had a personal experience here but these are the places I don't see mentioned commonly on any haunting index/site which I have heard from skeptics and people I trust are strange at the very least.

  Waverly Hills Sanatorium

  We were in a group of 5 that basically broke up into 2 and 3. on the first floor, nothing much happened. We were just getting use to the place. After about 2 hours the scare factor of the building left. We went to the 2nd floor of the building and at first everything was fine, we were in a big room at the corner of the building and my friend and I feeling watched from this room the whole time we are on this floor. We both keep walking in the hallway away from this room constantly looking over our shoulder. My friend, gets a look at a figure as what he describes as a tall shadow. He is basically freaking out like any sane person would so we go to catch up with the others in the cafeteria which is on the other side of the 2nd floor. Passing by that same corner room, I see a black shadowy mass that’s about half as tall as me, I’m 5’7”.

  We get to the 4th floor, skipping the boring/not my experiences part.

  It’s about 4 and half hours into our six hour time frame and my friend, is still feeling watched. I’m fine now and have been since we left the 2nd floor. So it’s a little weird, I am thinking that he is still freaked out from the figure he saw. But on the 4th floor, we are all 5 together on one side of the building. We get to the end where we will have to walk back around through the outer hallway. I turn around and look down the corridor and see a fairly tall shadow figure about the 3/4th the size of the door frame in that picture, peeking at us. I tell the group, frantically, there is something peeking at us. It stops then peeks around the corner again. I announce it again and again and it repeats pulling its head in and peaking out 3 times. For the rest of the night we don’t see or hear anything else.

  I ask one of the volunteers at the end of the tour to look at some photos, and the first one she shows is of a shadow figure named Tim or Malinda, apparently it has two names. Who is a tall black shadow figure who as soon as I saw the photo, I have a gut feeling that that’s what I saw, and may have been following us in Waverly that night.

  Villisca Axe Murder House

  Yeah. First off, I highly recommend this place. It is in southwest Iowa. I stayed with 4 friends. I am a psych major with a minor in criminal justice, so I was just happy to stay in such a historic house. My 4 friends were a lot more afraid than I was, so naturally, they had more encounters. I’m not afraid at all, but that doesn’t mean nothing happened. Upon walking in the door, instantly all of smiles went away. 3 of us just instantly started crying. I’m not one to cry. There was definitely some kind of energy.

  Not anger or malice, but sadness. My shirt was tugged a few times. While everyone was obsessed with the attic, I was focused on the kids bedroom (the killer escaped, so I don’t know why people think his spirit still around). In the kids bedroom, I rolled a toy ball. The ball broke the laws of physics. We had a level and the room was relatively even. This ball came to a dead stop and rolled back to me. It was November and the heat was blasting. There was a lock on the thermostat. I experienced multiple cold spots that were unexplainable. The place was actually annoyingly hot most of the time.

  But as a realist, I’m not going to jump right to the conclusions ghosts. My friend followed me down the stairs, but the thing is, I never went downstairs. My other friend gave up and stayed the rest of the night in the barn. The house gave me just enough of an experience to question if ghosts are really real, but not enough to verify it. Which is why I have nothing but questions. I’m trying to make sense of it all (old house, our brains) but I just don’t know. I was 100% skeptical, but I’m about 50/50 now. One thing I know for sure is if you are afraid, sh*t's gunna happen. I wasn’t ever afraid, just so d!mn sad.
