The Albertville Public Library is rumored to be haunted by the spirits of people who lived in an old house that was demolished on the same site in the early 1900s, with reported phenomena including faucets turning on and off, an elevator operating by itself, books falling from shelves, and shadowy figures. The city was also hit by a devastating tornado in 1908, which some local reports suggest may have also contributed to the hauntings in the town itself. Reports mention faucets turning on and off on their own, and the library's elevator has been seen running by itself, opening and closing, or even going to the adult non-fiction section. Books have been reported flying off the shelves, and a dark shadow has been seen passing by. A shadowy figure has also been described standing among the shelves. There have been reports of voices in empty rooms, and a power sander turning on by itself and shooting across the room.
