Gilcrease Museum Tulsa, Oklahoma

One of the most haunted places in Tulsa is Gilcrease Museum which is believed to be haunted by none other than Mr Thomas Gilcrease himself. It seems only natural that he would want to keep an eye on his museum and staff have confirmed seeing him here and there around the building since his death in 1962.

He also makes himself known by slamming doors and via the sound of his footsteps. However, the museum has been the subject of many a paranormal investigation over the years and it is said that Mr Gilcrease is not alone here.

Witnesses have reported seeing the spirits of a number of Native American children running around in the museum. Children have also been seen playing in the garden and people often say that they have heard laughter when nobody else is around.

All in all, it is thought that there are at least 7 spirits in the museum, and all are believed to be friendly!
