Wheelock Mission in Haunted Oklahoma

History of Wheelock Mission
The history of Wheelock Mission begins in 1832. In 1831, Choctaw Native Americans were forcibly removed from Mississippi to what is now southeastern Oklahoma. Alfred and Harriet Wright, Christian missionaries that had been working with the Choctaw in Mississippi, followed them to Oklahoma, establishing a mission, school, and church. The institution was sponsored by the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, and named after Eleazar Wheelock, first president of Dartmouth College and Alfred Wright’s close friend and mentor. Wheelock Mission functioned as a place of Christian ministry, educational efforts, and medical care for the Choctaw, with Harriet as a teacher and Alfred acting as a physician. A dormitory was built in 1839, with the school being adopted as part of the Choctaw national school system in 1842, under the name of Wheelock Female Seminary. The mission school was partially funded by the Choctaw Nation, but that ended when all schools were closed due to the Civil War in 1861. Most of it burned down in the war, but was rebuilt later by the Choctaw.

Paranormal Activity at Wheelock Mission
According to theories and speculation, all of the haunting and paranormal activity at Wheelock Mission is tied to an incident in which a man managed to break into the dormitory there and murder several innocent girls. Allegedly, the spirits of those murdered girls now roam Wheelock Mission forever, haunting the place in which their lives were unjustly taken. There have also been varied reports of many different terrifying sights, including apparitions of girls hanging from trees, blood spilling out of various trees as if they were living, and apparitions of girls sitting on the roof of the building, presumably contemplating an unobtainable death of their own making so they can finally rest in peace.
