Description

The old county library is haunted. Down main street, on the same side as the courthouse is the old library that was used until sometime in the late eighties or early nineties. Rumor is it’s haunted by the builder of the house to the left when looking at the library from the front. The man had gone on a business trip only to return and find his pregnant wife dead. In his remorse, after his physical body died, he stayed in the study of that building as well as the library. Many of library employees related that they would clean an area after locking up and move on to the next area only to return and have to straighten up again.
