Independence, Missouri Ghost Tales

The ghost of the marshal's wife is said to haunt the Marshall House and Jail Museum.  You can tour this and go into some of the cells where outlaws like Frank James was incarcerated.  Many inmates there were not well treated in the dark, dank quarters and I would imagine some weird goings-on occur there often.  Even  some of the employees agree!.

Back in 1980 when I was 18 yrs old, a group of us decided to check Rickey rd out (I live in Independence Mo).  It was dark, after 9 or 10 pm.  As we got to the top of the hill, the driver turned out the headlights, after we looked down below and saw a fire burning.  Without the car's lights on we could see a group of people dancing in odd motions all around the fire.  We decided to get out of the car, thinking we would be safe since we were away from these people.  But immediately after leaving the car, the atmosphere changed all around us.  It was very heavy, eerie and felt sad and bad together.  We all got back
 
    in the car and high tailed it out of there.  I have never gone back, but have wondered if there have been further weird things out there.  I always heard it was full of witch craft and satanic rituals, and now I believe it.
