The Haunting
Milford Mine Memorial Park marks Minnesota's worst mining disaster, where 41 miners died on February 5, 1924, after water and mud flooded the Cuyuna Iron Range mine. Its ghost reports should be handled as memorial-site folklore tied to a real mass-casualty event.
Crow Wing County identifies the site as Milford Mine Memorial Park, dedicated to the 41 miners killed when the 200-foot mine flooded around 3:30 p.m. on February 5, 1924. Only seven men escaped; the site later became a memorial park and National Register-listed historic district.
Reported activity: The haunting motifs are voices, footsteps, lights, and grief attached to the disaster. Because this is a memorial park, the emphasis should be commemoration first and paranormal claims second.
