Be sure you’re all caught up with this series! “50 States of Freaky”

———-

OK, be honest. How fudging sweet is my Christmas themed logo? It took me quite a while to make. (And by a while, I mean 2 minutes in Microsoft paint…) Anyway, ghosts! Today in our tour of the freakiest places of all the 50 states of the US, we stop by Florida at the Cape Canaveral Launch Pad that’s supposedly haunted by the ghosts of three astronauts that died there. So on January 27th, 1967, spacemen Gus Grissom, Ed White and Roger Chaffee were killed almost instantly during a horrific accident. A fire had engulfed their Apollo 1 capsule as it was being tested for launch. Now, witnesses, including NASA employees, say that instantly, a weird feeling comes over all who approach the now abandoned launch pad. The dying screams of the astronauts have also been reported. The pad was open for tours available to visitors, but is now completely off limits to the public due to “strange occurrences”.

Strange occurrences? Come on NASA, just tell us what they are! Fine, keep all that info for you and your tight nit group of friends! (It’s middle school all over again!) So is the launch pad haunted? Uh…I don’t know. Could it be? In my opinion, yes it could. I do believe that if something truly horrific happened at any kind of location and people died as a result, I do believe it can become haunted. There’s not much else to say. So in conclusion, I believe that it COULD be haunted, but there’s no way for anyone to confirm that it is, especially now that it’s off limits from the public. So, do you think the launch pad could be/is haunted? And if you could haunt one place, where would it be and why?
