Camp Floyd was an army outpost hosting the largest concentration of troops in the United States between 1858 to 1861. The Camp is also known for having been an outpost for the Pony Express. Travelers often spent the night at a local inn during their journey.

But beneath this seemingly harmless history lurks a haunting. Staff members and visitors alike have reported strange presences on the grounds. In one instance, a staff member even claims to have seen a dress floating in mid-air.
