The Jesse James Farm and Museum in Kearney, Missouri, is widely rumored to be haunted, with legends of paranormal activity stemming from the site's violent history. The grounds witnessed a tragic event in 1875 when the Pinkerton Detective Agency firebombed the farmhouse in an attempt to capture Jesse and Frank James. The raid killed their younger half-brother, Archie, and severely injured their mother, Zerelda. Alleged hauntings and paranormal phenomena at the Jesse James Farm include: Moving lights have reportedly been seen both inside and outside the farmhouse long after the property has been locked up for the night. Visitors and staff have reported hearing disembodied whispers or low voices. The sounds of "restless horses" and muffled cries have also been heard coming from nearby woods, though no tracks or animals can be found. Some believe that the trauma of the 1875 Pinkerton raid left a residual haunting on the property, manifesting as the sounds of pounding hooves and phantom gunfire. Some staff members have reported an "extremely intense" feeling of a spiritual presence inside the home. A century of stories suggests that several spirits still linger on the farm. Reports include strange movements seen inside the buildings, though no one is present, and odd movements that are not captured by security cameras.
