Join us for an interactive paranormal investigation of the haunting history found throughout the McPherson Museum! This investigation is led by Spirit Hunters Paranormal Society. Learn about the past of the museum's property and various artifacts as you investigate paranormal phenomena in high-activity areas not open to the public. Explore the museum in darkness and discover the unseen.

The museum erected in 2013, in place of what was once a well-known retirement facility. Built in 1950, the retirement facility operated until 2005. About 30 years earlier, the house that you see next to the museum today, known as the Fields house, was the only building located on the property, built in 1925 for Dr. Fields and his family. Unbeknownst to us is what the property may have been prior to 1925. As we know, much of McPherson was prairieland. Originally, home to Native Americans long before settlers emigrated from Europe. What we know about McPherson begins in 1872, when McPherson became a town. However, we know nothing about the museum property specifically until 1925. The spirits roaming the museum today could be connected to the property from as far back as the 1920’s and maybe even earlier. On top of that, we also house over 40,000 artifacts with years’ worth of history attached to each single artifact, some possibly more than 150 years.  

Each time slot is limited to 30 people. Attendees are divided into groups of 10 and will rotate throughout the museum investigating areas with the most paranormal activity. Two members of the Spirit Hunters Paranormal Society will lead each team throughout the investigation. Each attendee will get their own KII EMF meter to use during the investigation.

Spirit Hunters Paranormal Society is based out of Wichita, Kansas. They are known for their discreet, private investigations and are respectful to the history and the possible paranormal of the places they investigate. They listen and are understanding to both the living and the ones who have passed. They will never use ouija boards or any negative conjuring. They are serious about their investigations and will always use professional equipment. 

Note: this investigation requires standing and walking for extended period, comfortable walking shoes recommended. Must be 18+ to participate.

Tickets are $30 per person. Please purchase your ticket(s) based on the time slot you wish to attend. There are only 30 tickets available per time slot so we cannot change your ticket to a different time once it is purchased.
