Haunted Places and Scary Legends Around Sioux Falls

Halloween is rich in scary traditions. Trick or treat, scary costumes, local actors in haunted houses and pitch-dark corn mazes.

However, if we try to find real haunted places, what will we find? Over the past 30 years that I have lived in Sioux Falls, some places continue to attract attention as haunted places.

And yes, a handful of thrill-seekers will show up on our favorite spooky night to watch a viral video moment or see the misty ghost in person.

Let’s take a short tour of Sioux Falls’ most famous sites. Turn on the lights and give the command to the Cowardly Lion: “I believe in ghosts, I believe in ghosts…”
