Nebraska

18 sourced records. Reports are attributed claims, not proof of supernatural activity.

Alliance · Nebraska

Alliance Theater

Visit Nebraska records a theatrical ghost story concerning an actress and an alleged stage accident. The account documents a local legend rather than proving that the described death occurred. Interior access should be arranged with the theater.

Crofton · Nebraska

Argo Hotel

Built in 1912 for railway travelers, the Argo later served as a clinic before restoration returned it to hotel use. The current operator acknowledges a tradition of friendly spirits, particularly one called Alice. Its published history distinguishes the building's documented changes of use from that ghostly reputation.

Fremont · Nebraska

Barnard Park

Local reporting connects Barnard Park's former cemetery use with accounts of voices and apparitions. Oh My! Omaha points to a Fremont Tribune investigation report. The park's history helps explain the folklore's setting, but does not demonstrate that burial-related spirits cause visitors' experiences.

Brownville · Nebraska

Captain Bailey House Museum

Nebraska History preserves the Bailey house's persistent-door story alongside suspected-poisoning tales surrounding the family. The article presents the accusations as rumor, an essential distinction. The haunting belongs to the house's recorded folklore; neither those accusations nor a supernatural cause are established by repetition.

Valentine · Nebraska

Centennial Hall

The former schoolhouse, now a museum, is associated with reports of an apparition and unexplained music. Local publication Oh My! Omaha also recounts a poisoned-clarinet story. That dramatic death narrative is treated here as legend, rather than as a confirmed event in the school's history.

Sidney · Nebraska

Fort Sidney Museum and Commander's Home

A reported sequence of footsteps and falling sounds is associated with an enclosed staircase at the former commander's home. Oh My! Omaha recounts the haunting narrative. Its fatal-accident explanation remains part of that story and should be corroborated separately before being presented as documented history.

Brownville · Nebraska

Minick Manor

A Nebraska History account describes footsteps and other noises attributed to former occupant Helen Hitte at Minick Manor. It also records a later claimed spiritual reunion. Those details document how the house's lore developed, while the supernatural interpretation remains unverified. No public access is assumed.

Omaha · Nebraska

Museum of Shadows

This museum displays objects its operators describe as haunted and has appeared on Paranormal Caught on Camera. The designation reflects their claims, not an independently validated property of the objects. Confirm the current Omaha location when planning a visit.

Lincoln · Nebraska

Nebraska State Capitol

Alan Boye’s A Guide to the Ghosts of Lincoln includes the Nebraska Capitol’s ghost tradition among the city’s reported hauntings. The university press describes the volume as a revised collection of submitted accounts and earlier stories. Inclusion records a published claim; it does not independently establish a supernatural event.

Crete · Nebraska

Perkins Library, Doane University

Oh My! Omaha records a tradition of a woman in white appearing around Perkins Library, including its basement and windows. The account establishes a local campus ghost story rather than a verified apparition. Library use and access should follow university rules, with students' work taking priority.

Omaha · Nebraska

Prospect Hill Cemetery

An 1874 Omaha Daily Bee report described witnesses encountering a woman in white near a cemetery workshop. The Nebraska State Historical Society preserves the newspaper account. It demonstrates that the story was reported at the time, not that the newspaper independently verified a supernatural visitor.

Redington area · Nebraska

Redington Headless Horseman Hoax

The Nebraska State Historical Society recounts a headless-rider legend that inspired a local prank. A young resident used a sheet and horse to frighten onlookers; the disguise was exposed. This record belongs in a factual haunting archive precisely because the reported apparition had a human explanation.

Lincoln · Nebraska

Robber’s Cave

University of Nebraska–Lincoln’s guide to local Halloween destinations describes rumors of ghosts behind a sealed section of Robber’s Cave. The cave’s outlaw associations form part of the same local account. The haunting tradition is presented as a rumor, with no claim that the university verified a ghost.

Omaha · Nebraska

Rod and Gun Club Café Reports

In 1912, newspapers described chef Gep Sing's repeated encounters with a luminous woman above the club café on Carter Lake. Nebraska's historical society reproduces the account and its connection to an earlier fatal fire. Sing reportedly changed sleeping quarters; the article documents his claim rather than independently confirming an apparition.

Lincoln · Nebraska

Temple Building / Temple Theatre

University of Nebraska–Lincoln material describes a supposed presence near the theater balcony’s sound booth and a little girl in the prop room. Alan Boye includes Temple’s haunting tradition in A Guide to the Ghosts of Lincoln. The stories belong to the building’s campus folklore rather than its staged theatrical productions.

Omaha · Nebraska

The 1870 Vinton Street House Reports

Nebraska's historical society preserves an 1899 newspaper account of a house near Twenty-fourth and Vinton streets that was reputedly haunted around 1870. A property agent described luminous figures and offered a natural explanation. The house was demolished; the surviving evidence is a historical report of competing interpretations.

Sacramento · Nebraska

The Speakeasy

Nebraska Public Media’s Nebraska Stories profiles the Speakeasy in the small community of Sacramento. Alongside its restaurant history, the program records the local claim that a spirit called Faceless Fred haunts the establishment. This is a named venue with documented media coverage of its ghost tradition.

Lincoln · Nebraska

William H. Ferguson House

The Nebraska State Historical Society offers interpretation of reported paranormal encounters inside the Ferguson House. Its program explicitly considers the difference between old-house conditions, myth and unexplained experiences. The accounts are part of the property's public storytelling, with guided access preferable to assumptions about entry.
