Kid Friendly(10-17) Educational & Paranormal Investigation @ The Glore 3/28

The Glore Psychiatric Museum, located in St. Joseph, Missouri, is one of the most unique museums in the country, dedicated to educating the public about the history of mental health care, how treatment and understanding have evolved, and why compassion and awareness matter.

Hosting an educational and paranormal investigation at The Glore is an honor. It allows us to approach investigation through a lens of education, respect, and empathy, honoring the stories of the past while encouraging thoughtful discussion and learning for the next generation. This setting offers a meaningful opportunity to blend history, science, critical thinking, and curiosity about the paranormal in an age-appropriate, responsible way.

This Junior Paranormal Investigation Experience (Kid Ages 10-17) is a guided, hands-on introduction to paranormal investigating. This experience is explicitly designed for kids ages 10–17, with a parent or guardian present.

This is not a crowded ghost hunt. Groups are intentionally kept small so every Junior Investigator receives VIP-level attention, hands-on time with equipment, and personal guidance from experienced investigators, Mysterious Mike & Sam.

• Learn the basics of paranormal investigating
• Hands-on use of real investigation tools (EMF meters, dowsing rods, EVP recorders, trigger objects & more)
• Team-based investigation and observation skills
• Introduction to intuition, energy awareness, and grounding
• A guided investigation inside the Glore Psychiatric Museum
• 🍿 Snacks provided
• 🎁 FREE gift for each Junior Investigator

Because of the museum’s mission, this experience may include an age-appropriate brief discussion about:

• The history of mental health treatment at The Glore
• How understanding and compassion have changed over time
• The importance of empathy, respect, and awareness
• Clearly distinguishing historical context, environment, and investigation

This event is not designed to sensationalize mental illness. Our focus is education, respect, and thoughtful exploration while encouraging curiosity and critical thinking, especially in a paranormal space.
