A friendly Post Office ghost.
written by Julie R. Neidlinger 1 comments link this postIt was a few years ago when I became aware of the "friendly ghost" that lived in the Old Post Office (a.k.a. Lake Region Heritage Center) in Devils Lake, North Dakota. (No, it wasn't Casper.) Through conversation, I heard about Lillian Wineman and her connection to the museum that is now located in the Old Post Offices building. Wineman had many items that were donated and are on display in some of the rooms that are set up to look like historical locations.
The theory is that Wineman is still around, watching over her stuff. And they always said you can't take it with you...
She doesn't like people touching her stuff that on display, it seems, which makes me want to go there and touch some stuff and see for my own, skeptic self.
Of course, Devils Lake already has a sea monster, so I guess the ghost was the next likely step.*
You can read more about the here. You can find visitor information here and here.
* I can't imagine why the SciFi channel isn't all over the place, what with a sea monster (perfect for SciFi movie material) and the ghost (perfect for that ridiculous Ghost Hunters show).

Hi, my name is Kayci, and i live in Devils Lake. Last night me and my friends were driving around at like 2 something in the morning. I was told last night about the ghost in the post office for the first time,and i got intrested. I was told about the lights and all that weird stuff thats been going on.As we were driving away,we saw lights in one of the rooms, and it was completely locked up.But it wasnt in her room. it was in the back room in the middle. could there possible be another ghost in there with her.and we just dont know about it?
