Is Topeka haunted? With Halloween approaching, it is the perfect time to check out the Ghost Tours of Kansas. Cathy Ramirez, author of “Where’s the Ghost?,” has been in charge of the tours for 14 years. After she attended Rochester Grade school, she began hearing stories of the Albino Lady, and “she fascinated me and my interests in Halloween and spooky things grew.”
Many occurrences have happened during tours; people have captured apparitions, anomalies and, because of spiritual energy, people have become nauseated. Cameras, cell phones, and transportation electronics have gone haywire and readings have been seen on dowsing rods, k2 meters, temperature gauges, and cameras. These occurrences have probably happened around the most haunted location in Topeka, the former Moose Lodge located at 1901 N. Kansas Ave., and the building with the most activity, Three Flowers Metaphysical Treasures at 733 S. Kansas Ave. Other locations include the alley behind the Jayhawk Tower, 700 SW Jackson St. #A, and the Capitol Building.
Tours are $10 per person all year except October when price is raised to $12. For private tours, with a minimum of 4 people, the price is $15. Most tours start at 8 p.m. and last about 1 hour and 15 minutes and are one mile long.
