Phillips County Museum News for October 31 , 2018

Creepy crawlers, ghoulie ghosts, witches and pumpkins. Yes, its Halloween in Phillips County. The PC Museum has its own spooky tale to tell.

In 1924 the Miller Blacksmith shop burned completely down under mysterious circumstances. Fast forward to 1926 and a group of children playing in the ruins left at the blacksmith location. Suddenly the games came to a complete halt when a skull was found.

Examination of the skull by physicians reveal that it is a white man or woman. And in a surprising turn of events, the bones are not old but new. Much inquiry went into the skull, but it never gave up its story of how it came to be there. And where might one ask are the remaining parts?

Keep your eyes open this Halloween as maybe you may be the one to find the remaining bones!

Happy Halloween. The Phillips County Museum is open Monday-Saturday 10-5.
