About this Event

GRIP will provide guests with basic paranormal investigation equipment that will include infrared cameras, EMF meters, and temperature monitors to help document your experiences. You may also bring your own equipment!

The Route 66 State Park staff and Gateway Regional Investigations of the Paranormal (GRIP) invite you to join them for paranormal investigation of the iconic Route 66 State Park’s Visitor Center on 23 February 2024 from 7pm to 9pm. Located on the historic Route 66 highway, it first opened as the Bridgehead Inn in 1935; then the Steiny:s Inn in 1946; back to the Bridgehead Inn in 1972; and finally, the Galley West in 1980. It was converted into the Visitors Center in 1999. You will investigate the three darkened floors of this historic building and the outside surroundings (weather permitting) with members of the park staff and GRIP team. You will explore the basement where the bar used to operate, the first floor where the restaurant used to be, and the second floor where travelers spent the night. Stories have been told about some of the “departed” staff members still wanting to make sure visitors have an enjoyable stay! Are the stories true? Come and find out for yourself!
