Reporters from news organizations across the nation are in Wasilla, combing the town and looking for hidden skeletons in Republican VP nominee and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s closets. But they’re all missing the point. It’s the spirits without skeletons that they need to be hunting down. Because FYI - Wasilla, AK of which Palin was the Mayor before becoming Alaska Gov., is an authentic ghost town with multiple and repeated recorded instances of ghost sightings.

We’re talkin’ real live (or not so much) and floating spirits who haunt the town and its hotels and homes and farmsteads. And its not just bad-ass poltergiests or scary creatures. Even the good force is very strong in Wasilla. Don’t believe? Read on…

Wasilla, Alaska is just anytown USA by day, but under the surface there are abnormal things taking place. The ghosts of this municipality don’t  leave anyone unterrified. The spirit of a critically mangled huntsman dragging a dead coyote was perceived in a clothing store in the Wasilla vicinity….The ghost of a youthful lady with a rope around her neck has regularly been spotted crawling out from a drain hole on a Wasilla residential street late at night…The ghost of an old woman carrying a rifle may be witnessed often at midnight looking over Duck Flats…. - Wasilla, Alaska ghost sightings from GhostsofAmerica.com

Umm… That last one was probably Palin hunting moose or something… Anyway, there’s more. I didn’t expect much when I frist went to Kings Chapel. Walking in the door I was hit with the holy ghost and nearly fell out in the spirit. It almost happened again as I was walking into the sanctuary. I had to sit down. Every service is like that. Every service God shows up. There is an old saying, “in this place, anything can happen and it probably will”. That saying is very true for Kings Chapel. It is a church that is not afraid to let God move. Not afraid to step and and be who God wants His children to be. - Chris in Wasilla, AK talking about Kings Chapel on MerchantCircle.com

And there’s Independence Mine State Historical Park has a famed ghost town just off Wasilla. If you hang around at night, you’ll probably be able to see the ghosts of dead miners panning for gold.

The Matanuska Guest Ranch in Wasilla has an old barn on the property which is haunted by the farmer, who is said to have hung himself in the barn. Strange noises and a shadowy apparition have been reported. There’s also a poltergeist report on West 29th St with reports of objects being moved around in the house.

I could fill pages and more pages with documented evidence. But this is enough to prove my point. Which is that Wasilla is a haunted town filled with the paranormal and ‘in-human’. The air in Wasilla is shrouded thick with the mist of the unknown and whispered conversations in restaurants invariably turn towards the previous night’s strange occurances. Question is - Did Sarah Palin know about her City’s dark secret? I mean, how could she not know? And has anyone asked her if she has seen any ghosts? Or maybe she’s one herself…
