Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum to Host One Night of Ghost Story Tours
PAWNEE, Okla. — The Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum will host a night of ghost story candlelight tours on Saturday, October 26, from 6:30-9 p.m. Guides will lead guests through an outdoor tour while telling ghostly tales about Oklahoma and the Pawnee Bill Ranch. Tours will leave every 30 minutes from the museum building. The event will occur on porches or inside the buildings if it rains.
Tickets are $5 per person, and the event is for ages eight and older. Visit the ranch or call 918-762-2513 to purchase tickets or to set up tours for large groups. It is recommended that visitors purchase tickets in advance. The Pawnee Bill Ranch and Museum is located at 1141 Pawnee Bill Rd. in Pawnee.
In addition to the tours, the Pawnee Bill Ranch Association will open a concession stand on the museum’s front porch to add to the spooky fun. For a $5 donation, guests will receive a meal with a hot dog, chips, s’mores and a drink. The $5 also includes a hayride through the bison pasture, weather permitting. All proceeds will help fund the purchase of new playground equipment for the picnic pavilion playground area on site.
