When the music stops the museum comes alive.

Paranormal Investigations

Beginning at 8:00 PM, you can take over the museum after dark for a private paranormal investigation. With the lights low, the museum quiet, and no other visitors (that you know of), you'll have the opportunity to explore and see if you can make contact with whatever may still linger inside.

Additional Information

For decades, the Merry-Go-Round Museum has been the subject of unexplained experiences, strange occurrences, and reported paranormal activity. Our historic building has attracted paranormal investigators from across the country. The museum has even been featured on the Discovery Channel and investigated by numerous paranormal investigation groups over the years, making it a well-known destination for those interested in ghost hunting and the unexplained.


Your Investigation Includes:

  • Private after-hours access to the museum
  • Paranormal investigation equipment provided by the museum
  • The opportunity to investigate the museum’s historic building, carousel collection, and exhibits, including restricted areas that are normally off-limits to the public and have long been associated with reported paranormal activity.
  • A minimum rental of 2 hours
  • $150 per hour
  • Maximum group size of 10 souls to get the best investigation experience
  • Staff member to tell you personal stories of their experiences and help you with the equipment and known activity hot spots


Bring your friends, your courage and your curiosity. You never know what you may encounter once the doors close, the band organ stops, the carousel stops spinning and the lights go out. 


Food and beverages are welcome, so feel free to bring snacks and drinks for your group during your investigation.
