Howard – Payne Hall

CMU Campus Fayette, Mo

Some years ago a female student, walking home on a snowy night, was killed by a brick that fell from the building. Her apparition can reportedly be seen on snowy nights still trying to make her way back to her dorm. The ghost of a former student named Mary Kirk is believed to haunt her old dorm room. Mary disappeared from campus in 1926 and was never found. Shortly after her disappearance her boarded up room was found ransacked and muddy foot prints were found on the floor leading from outside the boarded door to the enterer of the room. The 5th floor of the building is believed to be haunted by the ghost of a female student who committed suicide as well as a possibly inhuman entity. There are reports of many strange occurrences including water being turned on and off.

Old Salem Church And Cemetery

Farmington, Mo

It is reported that there used to be a furnace in the middle of the church and one of the servers slept in the church and the church had burned to the ground that night. The boy’s body was never found but they put up a tombstone up for him in the cemetery across the bridge anyway. If you go to the fence to look at night the sky gets very hazy and you can see people walking around and when you go to leave there will be a male ghost standing at the fence watching you and your tires will get stuck on the gravel road. The church was rebuilt in around the 1930’s and is now off limits because it is slanting, but it is still said to be haunted.
