One Of The Most Haunted Museums In Kansas, The Kansas Aviation Museum, Has Been Around Since 1935

Since 1929, Wichita has been known as the air capital of the world, a monicker given by the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce due to the city's large number of aviation companies that called it home. In 1935, the city's first air terminal was dedicated and, for a time, was one of the busiest municipal airports in the country. Now an aviation museum, both employees and guests have reported mysterious phenomena and ghostly sightings, none of which can be explained.

The first municipal airport of Wichita was built in the mid-1930s. The Kansas Aviation Museum, or KAM, now inhabits the building and is dedicated to aviation history and restored vintage aircraft.

This art deco building has had many reports of ghosts and unexplained activity happening throughout. It's no wonder why this has become a hotbed for paranormal investigators to visit.

People have reported doors slamming, disembodied voices, music from another era playing, an apparition of a man sporting clothes from the 1940s, the sounds of children playing, cold spots, and many other strange occurrences that defy explanation.

It is also believed that a yellow crop duster plane on the property is haunted by a pilot who had perished in a crash. There are several ghosts who have made this museum their after-life home and refuse to leave.

Aside from the residents of the spirit realm, this aviation museum is a fascinating place to visit. View restored vintage planes, like a B-47 and Republic F-84 out on the ramp. Indoors has exhibits on the history of aviation and the importance of Wichita to the industry.

And don't forget to go to the control tower to get 360° views of Wichita!

When you visit, speak to some of the employees about the ghosts who reside here. They will probably have some stories to share!

The museum embraces the supernatural activity and its ghostly residents, even offering after-hours ghost tours throughout the year. Some of these tours have spooky names like Terminal of Terror, Fright Flight, and Ghosts of the KAM.

Whether or not you experience any unexplained phenomena during one of these events, you are sure to have a frighteningly good time as you hear the stories of ghostly encounters.
