Originally built around 1911 by the Knights of Pythias for use as a home for widows and orphans where dark hidden secrets and tragic events went untold for years. The Castle later became part of the Army's O'Reilly Hospital Complex in 1942 and served as the Service Club for enlisted men. It was during this period that the Castle also started serving a plethora of unexplainable activity. During WWII the O'Reilly Complex also housed three or more wards of POW's. Many of them were interrogated within the walls of the Castle and tales from visiting veterans over the years sometimes tell of "not so happy" endings. In 1947 the Castle became part of the Veterans Administration 500 bed tuberculosis hospital until 1952 when vacated. From that time forward it served as many uses until being bought by the current owner in 2003.

With it's eloquent charm, mystic atmosphere, mysterious past, lovely hosts and an abundance of occurring unexplainable events; this is one place that you want to add to your "places to visit before you pass on" list. When you indulge yourself within this building once, you will find yourself with an addiction to return multiple times to experience more of what it has to offer.

Bobby Mackey's Music World

I already knew the sad story of Pearl Bryan from watching ghost shows....the infamous Ghost Adventures episode at Bobby Mackey's Music World. now my memory is being jogged as I read my newest book...this poor woman was beheaded while she was alive. her dentist lover said if he made her drink 4 grams of cocaine mixed with 16 drops of water, it would paralyze her vocal cords...

God help me if I am ever a murder suspect and they search my computer....but Google says Crack cocaine is a solid, smokable form of cocaine. It is produced by mixing baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and water over heat until solid “rocks” are formed. another blurb said cocaine use could cause miscarriage, which is ironic since she was pregnant and her lover wanted her get an abortion. the fetus was 4-5 months along and alive at the time of her death.

requested private tickets for a Sunday investigation at Bobby Mackeys! and looking into Jailhouse Pizza... Driving distance from Louisville, KY (Waverly Hills) to Brandenburg, KY (Jailhouse Pizza.) The total driving distance from Louisville, KY to Brandenburg, KY is 44 miles or 71 kilometers. we could do Jailhouse Pizza on Saturday! going to be a ghost-filled weekend!!!!

This Haunted Road Trip Will Lead You To The Scariest Places In Kansas

Okay, so this isn't *really* a picture of Jetmore Curve (I couldn't find one...), but use your imagination and bear with me! Located at the junctions of Highways 156 and 283, the Jetmore Curve is a gravel road with a sharp turn that allegedly took the lives of a group of high school students who cruised the road path one Halloween. If you visit the curve on the night of October 31st, it is said that you will hear the unexplained sounds of screaming, groaning, and of cars crashing. )

2. Rocky Ford Bridge (Emporia.) Also known as the "Bird Bridge," this structure is home to one of the most infamous murders in Kansas history. In 1983, Sandra Bird, a prominent member of the Emporia community, was drugged, placed in her car, and then pushed over the side of the Rocky Ford (Bird) Bridge by her reverend husband and his mistress. When you visit the bridge today, it is said that you can still hear Mrs. Bird's screams coming from the water below.

3. Stull Cemetery (Stull). One of the most unsettling hauntings in Kansas may just be that of the eerie Stull Cemetery, which is alleged to have a set of hidden steps that descend directly into hell. The cemetery is also thought to have once been the meeting place for witches and cults, so if you visit, tread lightly...

4. Fort Leavenworth National Cemetery (Fort Leavenworth). That's right... we're making you visit ANOTHER cemetery during your epic road trip... only this time, it's the "most haunted army base in the United States," which is said to be plagued by the spirits of diseased victims, sufferers of Indian attacks, lost travelers, slain soldiers and other forgotten souls.

5. Sallie House (Atchison). The most haunted house in Kansas's most haunted town is none other than 508 North 2nd Street, which is more commonly known as the Sallie House. The home earned its nickname after a 6-year-old died in the home during a failed appendicitis surgery and gained notoriety in the 1990s, when a couple renting the home reported harmless pranks being played on them, which eventually turned malicious and violent. (After consulting a psychic, it was discovered that Sallie wasn't the only ghost haunting the home, but a middle-aged woman as well.)

As per a 2013 interview with the Topeka Capital-Journal, Hotel Josephine B&B owner Lori Ford said that many, including ghost hunters, flock to the historic establishment on the remote possibility of seeing a ghost.

Kansas State University, Manhatten. Keep your eyes peeled during this last stop, as you may encounter the spirits of a deceased football player, disgruntled Pi Kappa Phi pledge, and the last patient to die at the former K-State hospital roaming around campus.

This Creepy Clown Motel Has Been Named America’s Scariest Motel

If you’ve ever wanted to never sleep again, have we got the place for you! The Clown Motel in Tonopah, Nevada, is open for visitors looking for a thrill (or for people who just really like clowns? Do they exist?). If the sight of an illuminated juggling clown welcoming you to the hotel promising “clean rooms” (not much of an endorsement) and “singles for 39.50” fills you with cheer, then come on down to the Clown Motel.

The lobby is littered with clowns, including a life-sized clown sitting in a chair, cradling a number of smaller clown dolls in its lap. Oh, and every room is clown-themed: There are clowns on the doors and portraits of famous clowns (hi, Bozo!) hang on the walls. Want more? Okay, have some of this creepiness: Tonopah is widely considered to be a “ghost town.”’

The current population is around 2,500 people, but as a former mining town, it used to be a thriving metropolis of over 50,000. It was where the second-largest discovery of silver in the history of the state of Nevada was made. This meant a lot of people—miners, frontier explorers and more—once lived and died in Tonopah. Some of them are buried in the town’s old cemetery, dating back to 1901. So if the clowns weren’t enough for you, here: Have some ghosts of miners and prospectors, too. As luck would have it, the Clown Motel is located right next to the old cemetery, so you’ll have a nice view of one of the many wooden-and-tin headstones marking the dusty graves.

That being said, the motel and the cemetery both seem to be devoid of otherworldly happenings. There are few strange stories here and there, but most of the reviews of the motel just note the free WiFi and “mini breakfast.” Still, the Clown Motel has been dubbed “America’s scariest motel,” and it’s certain to continue to do a brisk business as long as the trend continues. So, are you brave enough to spend the night? Sweet dreams…
