The Armor Home for the Aged
The Armor Home for the Aged is located in Kansas City, Missouri and stands on a hill off Paseo Boulevard in the form of two one hundred year old buildings. Currently, the buildings are now used as the Western Baptist Bible College. The residence hall has been decaying for years. The buildings were originally built by the Armor family, whom were one of the most prominent family’s in Kansas City. The purpose of these buildings were to provide a home for the elderly. Not too long after, it was then sold to charity and turned into the college that it still is to this day.
The education building was built as the Kansas City orphanage. The walls of this building show marks from the horrible fire that killed some of these children in 1903. When the sun starts to go down and night begins to fall, odd shadows and shapes can be seen looking out some of these windows. In the education building at night, screams can be heard that appear to be from the children during the fire. Strange lights and orbs have also been seen in photographs taken in the areas where the marks remain from the fire. Those people that don’t live too far away from the site report seeing apparitions of elderly people walking around the grounds late at night.

Oh my goodness….for years I have told my children the ghost stories of what I call Western Baptist Bible College….;there are so many. I have taken my daughter to the place in my adult years to take pictures because it has always bothered me the things I have personally seen and heard while attending bible camp there overnight for a week on more than one occasion. In one picture she took we see an “image” of something like a child staring out of one of the basement windows. This is the first I have ever of it being anything other than a bible college but it explains the evilness which is always felt while being there.
