Creepy Prairie Ghosts of Oklahoma
The Spooksville Triangle
For more than 100 years, residents of Oklahoma have been front-row eye-witnesses to one of the strangest and unexplainable phenomenon in the entire country: a triangle of eerie spook lights that runs 20 miles on each side stretching from Joplin, Missouri to Columbus, Kansas to Miami, Oklahoma known as the Spooksville Triangle. A few of the most famous spook lights include the Hornet Spooklight (located on the Devil’s Promenade) and the Miami Spook Light.
The story behind the Miami Spook Light dates back to the late 19th century. Legend has it a mother sent her young daughter out one foggy night to look for stray cows from their farm. The mother gave the girl a lantern and sent her off, only to never see her again. The mother searched for her daughter night after night until she allegedly went insane with grief – the Miami Spook Light is said to be the light of her lantern, searching for her lost daughter.
Want to see the Spooksville Triangle yourself? The area is intersected by Highway 44 and several smaller roads that make viewing the unexplainable lights possible.
The Haunted Stone Lion Inn
Formerly used as a funeral home, the Stone Lion Inn was converted in a small bed and breakfast. With charming rooms, delicious cuisine, and even murder mystery weekends, the owners soon realized they were playing host to more than just their guests.
Strange occurrences have been occurring at the Stone Lion Hill for years: the owners have reported hearing footsteps up and down a staircase at night and a door somehow being open and closed. In fact, the footsteps could be heard during a specific time of night, between 10 p.m. and midnight. The owners would also clean up their children’s toys and neatly put them away in a locked closet on the third floor every night, only to wake up the next morning and find them scattered all over the floor. Legend has it the ghost is that of the 8-year-old daughter of the original owners, who died of whooping cough in the early 1900s.
Book a room at the Stone Lion Hill and you may just be privy to some of the bizarre happenings known to occur at this haunted bed and breakfast.
Hart Cemetery
Located in the town of Konawa nestled in central Oklahoma, myriad ghost stories and old legends haunt the Hart Cemetery. Perhaps the most popular is the story of the school children that still haunt the cemetery. In the back corner of the cemetery is an old school house that dates back to the 1800s. Legend has it all the school kids were killed in a horrible, gruesome bus accident during the early 1900s. Visitors claim to have heard children playing and talking at night in the cemetery even though there is nothing there.
