Paranormal legends at The Mob Museum (former federal courthouse)

The National Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement (the Mob Museum) occupies the former U.S. Post Office and Courthouse at 300 Stewart Ave, a historic building that attracts urban legends claiming it is haunted due to its courtroom and detention history. Paranormal investigators and local media have documented anecdotal accounts of unexplained sounds and sightings during after-hours investigations and publicized ghost-tour events. The museum acknowledges its building's history but treats haunting stories as folklore; such claims are debated and not proven. The association of the building's legal and criminal past with alleged paranormal activity fuels local urban legendry.
