The Stepstone/Immaculate Conception Church in Butler, Kentucky, is rumored to be haunted, with ghost stories and claims of paranormal activity swirling around it. The church was built in 1860 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987. Here are some of the descriptions of the alleged haunting: The most well-known legend is that four teenage girls were hanged by men on a cross in the church loft before the building was set on fire. It is said that witnesses have heard crying, laughing, and have seen a shadowy figure moving around the church. A powerful and terrible presence: A user on Reddit recalled an encounter with the church as a child, describing it as a "strange place" with a powerful and terrible presence. They felt like they were being watched and experienced haunting dreams about the church. The same Reddit user described a growing feeling of dread and being watched that intensified as they approached the cemetery and the church. The feeling was so strong that they never dared to go inside. The church has been repurposed, but YouTube videos from as recently as October 2024 discuss ghost stories and legends associated with the building and surrounding property.
