The Ghosts Of Wright Patterson Air Force Base

An upcoming episode of Ghost Hunters will feature a segment filmed at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Buildings 219 and 70 are said to be the focus of the investigation which involves the sighting of a ghostly young boy in Building 219 and the ghost of an older woman seen in Building 70. Too bad they will not invite UFO Investigators into Wright-Patterson. Imagine what they might turn up.

According to official statements and press reports from that time, Wright-Patterson is one of the places where material from the infamous 1947 Roswell UFO Crash was brought. It's also the home of the legendary Hagar 18 where UFOs and Aliens may have been kept and studied at one time. When the late Senator and Reserve Air Force General Barry Goldwater requested entrance to the area where UFOs were kept many years ago, he was told by General Curtis LeMay that he couldn't go into that area because he didn't have the security clearance.

If you enjoy looking at historic military aircraft up close and in person and happen to be in the Dayton, Ohio, area, you'll want to visit the Air Force Museum at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. I have been there many times. It's one of the most amazing places on the planet and is family friendly for those that want to bring their children. However, leave your ghosts behind. This place seems to have enough of its own.

On several occasions when I visited the AF Museum without my family, I took some time to do some investigating. Although UFOs were the primary target of my research there, I was surprised at how many civilian employees and active duty military personnel associated with the facility told me their ghost stories.

Most of the stories I heard centered around historic aircraft and objects. For example, an employee named Joseph told me about an experience he had near an exhibit about General Doolittle's bombing raid on Japan during the early days of World War II. A pistol that Doolittle carried on the raid was a part of the display. Joseph says that he saw a strange glow near the weapon at night. He also heard mumbling noises and became quite ill until he backed off from the area.

Josh, another person associated with the museum, told me about hearing strange noises and seeing orbs near the POW exhibit. This area has a long history of being haunted and considering the subject, it would be almost expected. He also mentioned the infamous B-24 known as the Strawberry Bitch. He says that it's been one of the most haunted aircrafts in the place.

One of Joe's co-workers that I will call Melissa says that she and others have seen full body apparitions, unexplained lights and heard odd noises inside and around the World War Two Liberator. She claims that the guns of the B-24 occasionally rattle without explanation and says she and others have seen odd vapors floating around the outside of the aircraft.

One of the strangest things that I saw on display at the Air Force Museum during the 1990s was a painting recovered from Hitler's Office in Germany after allied forces arrived in Berlin. It showed members of his staff (identified and unidentified). It didn't surprise me to hear that the painting was surrounded by paranormal activity. Orbs were seen around it and lights meant to illuminate the painting would mysteriously burn out.

It's fair to say that the very size of the Air Force Museum makes it a place where all kinds of noises, reflections of lights from within and without and other factors can make the place appear to be haunted. Despite these possible reasons for some of the allegedly paranormal activity, there are many things that happen and seem to defy convention explanation. Perhaps TAPS will take the time to investigate the AF Museum on some future episode. Read more at http://newsletter.ufoguy.com
