I had no idea.  I saw this article and looked at the 11 most haunted places in Minnesota.  And one of them is in Litchfield.  That's 14 miles away from where I grew up in Eden Valley.  That's creepy.  I've been by this church like 5000 times.  Never knew it was haunted.

Real American haunted houses are better than those gimmicky Halloween attractions.

The list of haunted places in Minnesota is all over the state.  It goes from Pipestone, to Roseau.  The one in Litchfield is the Ness Church.  Look at this... and if you want to check it out yourself, there is an address included.

Litchfield’s Ness Church might just be a paranormal investigator’s dream. Legend has it that the church is haunted by apparitions of Sioux Indians. There are also reports of a young girl named Annie. Other reports say that lights come on by themselves. You’ll have to see for yourself when you visit this beautiful historic church. Address: 24040 580th Ave, Litchfield, MN.

I should have included the house I lived in when we lived in Sartell.  The house itself wasn't haunted, but there was a little girl who was running around the neighborhood. I heard that from someone, and my dog kept barking at "nothing" outside the house.  Turns out a little girl was hit by a car and killed in front of that house some years ago.  That's creepy.

There is also the "Most haunted hotel in Minnesota".  That is the Palmer House Hotel in Sauk Centre.  Their busiest time is...surprise... Halloween.  They throw a big shin-dig and it's all centered around the fact that the hotel is infamously haunted... and please be nice to the ghosts and spirits.  They move among everyone and they like to "party" too.  If you are interested, reservations fill up quickly.

LOOK: How Halloween has changed in the past 100 years

Stacker compiled a list of ways that Halloween has changed over the last 100 years, from how we celebrate it on the day to the costumes we wear trick-or-treating. We’ve included events, inventions, and trends that changed the ways that Halloween was celebrated over time. Many of these traditions were phased out over time. But just like fake blood in a carpet, every bit of Halloween’s history left an impression we can see traces of today.
