Crown Point Haunted Tours

Riverview Cemetery in Kewaunee, Wisconsin. The legend that has existed for decades surrounds the grave of a suspected witch, who was buried standing, to prevent her from escaping. It is said that anyone who defaces her grave will suffer an awful curse. Her name is Martha Jane Copland, who was buried in 1861. The inscription on her gravestone reads “cursed be the man who disrupts this grave”. While urban legends surround the graves about the early 1800-1900’s, inscriptions of this nature were made to ward off grave robbers!

One of the most interesting places I’ve visited ! So much history, and of course an abundance of paranormal activity reported. Built in 1876, it housed the sheriff’s family, and 6 jail cells. Two rooms have been restored to depict a parlor, and bedroom, reminiscent of the 1800’s. The rest of the jail, located behind, yet attached to the building, are the original jail cells. Hauntings include, whispers, footsteps, apparitions, and documented EVPs. Board of Directors Museum Curator, Brian Huben, was kind enough to show me and my cousin around this amazing historical site in Kewaunee, Wisconsin. This is a “must see” and experience for anyone who loves history and mystery! Thanks again, Brian! Although we didn’t get any activity to document, the feeling of anxiousness, and an occasional hot spot was felt by us.
