Tis the season for goblins, ghouls, witches, and vampires roaming around the Sioux Empire. There are actual ghosts that haunt the City of Sioux Falls, especially throughout the downtown area.

There are always spooky ghost stories that people like to share during the Halloween season. One Downtown Sioux Falls bar has a ghost story that's sure to frighten anyone. More likely than not, this ghost has made her presence known as people dance the night away.

Wileys has a “friend” who likes to hang out with people on the dance floor and at the bar. Her name is Eleanor.  You can't see her, but you can just feel her aura in the air.

A few years ago, Wileys shared Eleanor's story on Facebook. She is the bar's "number one regular customer that never leaves." The post explains that the staff at Wileys never really talked about Eleanor...until now.

Eleanor has many hobbies and games she likes to play from turning T.V.s on and off to knocking over barstools. Every winter you can enjoy the phantom sound of "old timey" music and distant whistling when the bar closes down. As you can see in a customer's photo ( taken 5 or 6 years ago)....she also enjoys the dance floor.

For the most part, Eleanor seems to be a friendly ghost and just likes to have a little fun with everyone who enters Wileys.

The hospitable crew at Wileys is happy to share their experiences and personal stories about Eleanor.  All you have to do is ask!

Welcome To South Dakota's Underwater Ghost Town

You may be thinking, "I didn't even know there was an underwater ghost town in South Dakota!" You're probably not alone, but- - surprise!

In fact, odds are pretty good that you have been there, maybe gone swimming off the sandy beach on the south shore, or fished for rainbow trout in it, maybe had a leisurely picnic beside it, or kayaked, even waterskied on it.

Any guesses?

This is a difficult decision just because there are so many great local options. Luckily, our friends at Yelp identified the top ten bars in Sioux Falls thanks to numerous reviews on each establishment.
