It has also been reported by some that they have had their leg grabbed when climbing the tight spiral staircase to the top of the castle only to find that no one was behind them.

There have been reports that you can sometimes see ghostly or transparent men in old clothing standing inside or on top of the castle only to disappear. And Finally the Spirit on a teenage boy remains as many years ago it is rumored that a few friends came up to visit Coronado Heights and after having a few drinks they started to make dares and one was to walk around the top of the castle on the edge wall, well the cockiest of the teens decided he was going to prove he could do it. He made it most of the way, but right as he was coming toward the end a huge gust of wind pushed him off and he fell to his death down the hill. His death was deemed an accident, but now it is said that you can sometimes hear his scream if you lean over the edge and listen. It is also said that if you try to balance on that side it will always feel like something is trying to pull you off that direction. There are many more stories and accounts that individuals have experienced, but these make up the bulk of the reports. Be careful if you visit, but if you fall victim to the fate of the many others’ who’s spirits remain, at least you’ll have company… in the afterlife!

Great Fun NEW

Love hiking there, going into the castle, cooling off there from the hot Kansas sun. As for being haunted, I don't believe it! At night, anyone can imagine anything. I'm presently reading a book in which one of the main characters goes to Lindsborg to earn $$$ during the 30's because of the draught. His WPA job is to build the castle which seems outlandish to him. His family has nothing, but he is building a stone castle. Maybe that is just our government at work?!?

Grew up in Lindsborg NEW
by: CCC

I grew up in Lindsborg. I heard stories as a kid of "Satanic" or Wiccan rituals happening up there. Not so much in the Castle but there is a large Picnic area with a fireplace and two picnic tables there. From what I have heard, that is where the said rituals happened. But I have never personally seen it. As for the haunted farm house that is close to there. I just learned of that last year. I have friends who farm the land in that area, I need to contact them and see if they know anything. That haunting is also mentioned on the web site, www.darkkansas.com

Not believing the hype NEW
by: Chandra

That table is 1 of 2 and they are both still there. I am not aware of any satanic rituals taking place in the castle- can you point me towards your source?

Lindsborg? Really?
by: Chandra

I just moved to Lindsborg in June, and have been fortunate to visit Coronado heights. Granted, we visited during the day, but I didn't feel uneasy, or frightened at all. I keep reading about this supposed haunted house that is located close to Coronado-there is one house that I can see in close range, but I have seen normal human activity in it. I dunno-I love living here and maybe I am hoping that there isn't anything paranormal, but I don't believe the claims. I am not a skeptic either-I had a personal experience with ghosts this past summer and am a firm believer, just not in the ghosts of Lindsborg.

Cemetery

It is said if you have dust on your auto and sit in the cemetery at the foot of Coronado Heights, after you drive away, you will find toddler handprints in the dust.
