Whether it's the whispers you can't quite make out or the footsteps you hear when nobody is around, they're experiences many Cowtown staffers have had. With the help of the WPRS, the public was able to get a closer look at the spooks of Cowtown.
"It's rather exciting to hear the whispers and the voices," said Rick Rekoske, who works at Cowtown.
It was a sold out house for a spooky showing at Cowtown. More than 100 people turned out to find out just how haunted it really is.
"Cowtown is full of a lot of history," Rekoske said. "The ghost stories are a part of it. It's a big deal."
During Cowtown's historic hauntings, people checked out the town before sitting down for a video on the WPRS's latest investigation of the grounds. WPRS investigated 13 buildings overnight in September.
"There's a lot of history and we were able to justify some of the claims we've heard," said Shane Elliott, the founder of WPRS.
Whether they're believers or skeptics, people who took part in Historic Hauntings say it was fun to search through a different side of Cowtown.
"I believe in all of this stuff," said one person.
"They would have to come up with something really big, but it's still fun,' said another.
