Some places seem to be more prone to hauntings than others. Museums are perfect examples. Spots where time stands still, they’re places filled with history and memories — and some of those memories are traumatic.
It could be that the back story behind the Heart Mountain Interpretive Center in Wyoming is the reason for its reputation as a hot-spot for paranormal activity. Constructed during World War II, it served as a prison camp. The heartbreak and trauma suffered by those incarcerated there undoubtedly left its mark. Many visitors experience a chilling, uneasy atmosphere at the museum, and some have reported frightening incidents.
The Heart Mountain Interpretive Center is located at 1539 Road 19, south of Powell.
When investigators measured areas of the camp where the deteriorating ruins of the hospital, school, and barracks stand for paranormal activity, the meters registered readings over 85.
Only a few other haunted spots in Wyoming registered higher than the Heart Mountain Interpretive Center.
Visitors have reported hearing footsteps and whispers, and some say they've had the uneasy feeling of being watched, certain that spirits are hiding in the shadows.
