Description

When this used to be an orphanage, night staff documented recurring, activity like clockwork between 1:00 AM and 1:30 AM. Common reports included the distinct, heavy scent of vintage ladies’ floral perfume, phantom crying from sleeping quarters where all children were confirmed asleep, and the sound of a woman humming “Amazing Grace” down empty corridors.

πŸ“ Case Notes

Haunted Lineage note:Β Founded in 1931 through the estate of philanthropist Georgia Brown Blosser, the Georgia Brown Blosser Home for Crippled Children on East Eastwood Street provided long-term convalescent care, physical rehabilitation, and schooling for youth recovering from polio and complex orthopedic surgeries. The facility operated as a dedicated pediatric rehabilitation residence for over four decades until evolving medical treatments and declining need led it to cease residential medical services in 1974, after which the endowment transitioned into community and youth trust funds. The building is now used as a dorm for Missouri Valley University.
