Given the limited hours of this museum on the Iowa State University campus, Ive never quite got a chance to visit this place until recently. Important lesson that Ive learned: thank goodness there is limited hours at this museum. This place gave me the creeps while I was moving through the building taking pictures. Definitely come with a friend, or better yet, come with a group. I cant imagine the poor undergrad that has to sit in this museum on a regular basis. Anyways, the museum itself contains a mind boggling 3 stories worth of rooms filled with various artifacts. The rooms/exhibits on the third floor is especially pressuring/claustrophobic given that its basically the attic of the farm house, and there is a very little room to move about. I guess if youre into the whole paranormal investigation stuff, this is not a bad place to check out.

The origin point of Iowa State University once housed the College of Agricultures Deans, and their families. Since 1976 it has been a free museum, showcasing the stories of ISU through objects from a time period ranging from 1880 to 1920.
