We went there for the halloween tour. Definitely spooky, well worth 5 bucks to get in. Spoke to the medium there, and saw some pretty eerie photos (it is haunted). The guide and people there told similar stories of apparitions (at different times, apart from each other) that meshed up. UNO was there a couple years ago and caught stuff on camera that is on display. I want to go back and see if we can find anything while we are there.
