If you haven't noticed, the Eskridge Hotel and Museum is our upmost favorite place to investigate, along with the Historic Miller Mansion/101 Ranch. There quite a few haunted gems in Wynnewood, Oklahoma and touches of aesthetic beauty. On our agenda was investigating the Eskridge, Wynnewood Police Station, the building connected to the Flower Bin, Wynnewood Cemetery, the library, and the Joy school. We never got to the library or Joy school due to bad weather making cut our venture a day short.
With us was Stephanie Henning, Kerry Chadwell, Hildreth "Hildy" Overcash, Cathy Nance-her daughter Jordan and her friend Dakota of those who stayed the night in the Eskridge. Logan Correli, Dale and Marleena joined us later on and we were accompanied by Wynnewood historian Chris Walker.
After arriving and getting settled in. We decided to do a short EVP session while waiting for Cathy at the Eskridge. Kerry is a borderline skeptic, Chris had the heat off and we were all freezing. Kerry said, "We're cold can you warm us up?" No sooner had she said that the heater came on. We looked the thermostat was on "off" and to top it off that part of the heating unit for that room doesn't work. Not too long after Cathy showed up with Jordan and Dakota. So we headed to the police station.
We got the police station around 11pm-12am. They gave us a short tour and told us they heard the piano playing upstairs. Sure enough there was mice nesting inside and it was so clogged with nesting the keys won't even budge. The most active place is the holding cells, that are no longer in operation. We did live EVP and heard conversations. I was walking from one cell to the next doing live EVP, I heard walking behind me, stopped, and heard an electronic man's voice say, "What do you think you're doing?" After awhile we switched places with team B and went upstairs. They have these props up there that look like scarecrows, they're so eerie looking in the dark Jordan and Dakota swore they were moving at certain points. The only activity I received up there was being groped and around that time Jordan felt a smack on her bottom. We had to have a talk with the too friendly spirits.
Sidenote: The police department use to be the town fire station.
When we finally decided to call it a night we went to the war memorial to rest, Hildy slept on the chaise lounge in the ballroom at the Eskridge. About an hour after laying down, I hear someone walk down the staircase, the door to the memorial open, more footsteps, and a woman with a dignified Victorian accent say, "Who are all of you? What do you think you are doing here?" The next day I found out I wasn't the only one who heard her.
The next morning we got breakfast and headed to the cemetery, looked around, saw the graves of the Eskridge's, but it was too windy to investigate.
Since the librarian cancelled due to bad weather coming in. We met up with Logan and his crew. We decided to head to Konowa, Oklahoma and head to Sacred Heart Mission. It was raining and the priest told us the buildings were locked up. He wasn't going to go unlock them in the rain, and if we could find a way inside on our own, then to go for it. We didn't capture anything, it was very beautiful and peaceful. So it made up for it. Kerry and I were fascinated by the priests headstones in the cemetery.
Kerry and Stephanie decided to head home after Sacred Heart. The rest of us went back to Wynnewood to the Flower Bin. We really didn't capture anything there either. Although we did see shadow people, I saw a boy in a red knitted wool sweater, Jordan-Dakota-and I heard a woman and man whispering.
Sidenote: Keith the owner of the Flower Bin, his grandfather rebuilt that building. The part we investigated was once a small hospital and dentist office. You can still smell the flouride in the air.
We would like to thank the Wynnewood Historical Society and the town of Wynnewood for beng so friendly, gracious, and hospitable. It is a very charming respite. We hope to continue having the opportunity of working with everyone there. Thank you!
