Scary Ghosts Pictures

These scary pictures are from the Discovery Museum in Old Sacramento California.

We visit many supposedly haunted locations every year, and we have to say that this one is considered by EVERY employee, and docent who works there to be EXTREMELY haunted. We even encountered a film crew and ghosthunting group led by a medium who claimed to see two ghosts while we were there.

It is interesting that even the Winchester Mansion does not have the eerie feeling, or the employees willing to share frightening stories, that the Discovery Museum has aplenty.

The two scary parts of the Discovery Museum are;

• Community hall, where many scary photographs, and personal effects of local citizens are displayed in a disarming and macabre way. It is perhaps most disconcerting that none of it appears to have been intentionally frightening at all.
• The building history, for which you will have to do some research to learn, is scary as well.
  At one time the Discovery Museum was the Jail, and two people were hanged to death in the basement.This picture is from community hall, and shows a childs costume from the early 1900s. The way in which the costume is displayed is not meant to be scary, but the overall disembodied clothing display has a macabre effect in Community Hall.

Other displays are a coach that was owned by Leland Stanford for which Stanford University is named. Employees claimed to have seen ghosts inside the coach, most often women. And the ghost hunting group found (they claimed) the ghost of a man and teenage girl standing near it during their visit.

One very scary picture to us is the bride and the white dress in community hall.

Another group shot…

The look of the display creates the scary feeling in the community hall.

Many people claim to see scary ghosts in this coach, and a spiritualist claims that a ghost was standing right in front of the coach near the wheel. She said we should “close our eyes, and open them slowly” to see the ghost.

She said the man was in his fifties and had a teenage girl with him. Many people had cameras and other electronic equipment, there were about 20 in her group.

We tried to close our eyes and squint to see the ghost, but neither me nor my dad could see it.
