Albin Polasek Museum and Sculpture Gardens
Winter Park, FL · Miscellaneous
This museum was founded in 1961, and is home to more than 200 sculptures by Czech artist Albin Polasek. Many staff members feel Polasek's spirit still infuses the place, refusing to leave his beloved sculptures. In 1997, one guest snapped a photo of a tear miraculously suspended on the cheek of Jesus on Polasek's "Stations of the Cross." The staff had no explanation for how it got there.

I worked here for awhile and spent a lot of time in the house alone and never felt or saw anything out of the ordinary. None of the other staff members ever mentioned anything either. Its a nice place with beautiful gardens but I don't think its haunted.
