Hoffman Mansion - Around the 1920's, A man named Hoffman took several boys into his home. Hoffman later went into a rage and killed all of the boys and then took his own life. The boys and Hoffman are buried in a cemetery on the property. Several instances of hearing someone running through the woods, voices, and footsteps in the mansion. The Mansion was condemned and bulldozed late 1998. The cemetery remains as well as some haunting spirits.

The 4-Statee Explorers have conducted investigations into the Hoffman Mansion outside of Peoria Oklahoma. Here are some pictures of our first preliminary investigation.

4state explorers:

Two strange things occured during our investigation. The first was that upon begining to leave the area the light on the radio display began to flicker on and off. I stopped at the end of the section of road that the site sits on to check for radio interference. I then put the vehicle back into gear and as the tires crossed the edge of that section of road the light suddenly brightend and never flickered again! There has never been a problem with that light before or since then. Also, while standing over what appeared to be the oldest grave in the cemetary I left the microphone hanging out of my pants poket to record EVP.
Upon playback a strange breathing can be heard on this part and this part only of the tape. The mic was pointed toward the ground and was several feet away from face.
