Workers claim eerie things happen at the Western Development Museum
Some people go as far as calling in sick on Friday the 13th, while others embrace the day to seek thrills like visiting haunted houses. But here in the Battlefords, people don’t have to go far to find one.
The French House at the Western Development Museum is well known by the workers as an unsettling place.
“When I was cleaning in there last summer I heard footsteps coming from the attic which is locked up,” Kaitlyn Puffalt a former exhibit assistant, said. ”Workers are told not to go up there because it could be dangerous. That was a pretty terrifying day. I ran right out of there and refused to go back in for weeks.”
Puffalt says for workers there, it’s a ritual to say good morning and good night to the house when opening or locking up.
