Real Haunted House

Carnegie Library

St. Joseph, Missouri

The Carnegie Library is supposedly haunted by the spirit of a former librarian. When nearing closing time, some people have reported hearing footsteps from an unknown entity, as well as someone saying “shhhhh”. Some accounts even claim that books have moved from shelf to another shelf on their own.

I have lived in St. Joe my whole life, 38 years, and have been going to this library since I was in elementary school. I have never heard it was haunted, but when my kids were small I would take them downstairs to the childrens library for their books. Sometimes when we were down there alone, I would hear someone walking around right outside the door. Needless to say, no one was there. I didnt like going down stairs and would hurry my kids in picking out their books, if we were the only ones down there.
