Three of the Top 10 Most Haunted Libraries in the Midwest are in Illinois, One is in Missouri and Another is in Iowa

If you're the type of person that enjoys visiting places that are supposedly haunted, you'll like this news. MysteriousHeartland.com has ranked the Top 10 Most Haunted Libraries in the Midwest. While none of the libraries in our immediate area made the list, a decent number of the Top 10 are within a fairly reasonable driving distance. 

In Illinois, three libraries are among the Top 10, including: The Chester Public Library (10), the Milner Library in Normal (7), and the Peoria Public Library (3).

In Missouri, the St. Joseph Public Library made the list (4), and the Cedar Rapids Public Library (5) also ranked.

Based on the MysteriousHeartland article, it appears that the ghosts of these libraries are more of the friendly variety, rather than the Amityville Horror type. In fact, the ghost at the St. Joseph Library is described as a "beloved figure."

In case you're wondering, the overall most haunted library in the Midwest is said to be the Memorial Library in Madison, Wisconsin.
