Boone County Historical Society - Masonic Temple - Boone, IA

Dating back to 1907, the historic former masonic temple and museum may have a resident ghost. Known as 'Frank', the poltergeist frequently slams doors and turns on lights after the place has been closed up for the night. Disembodied footsteps have also been heard on the second floor, and on occasions the old elevator is operated by unseen hands. (Submitted by Callum Swift)

It's funny how the freemasons labour to undermine and blaspheme Jesus and try to trick people into disbelief of spirituality, only for their errors to transform them into bodiless egoistic wraiths when they die. Freemasonry is the path of gradual subversion to Luciferianism that gets it's hooks into people by exploiting their vanity and leads them to ruin. That's just the tip of the iceberg...
