Marge and her wonderful volunteers are just so knowledgeable and kind. I had an excellent experience last night on a guided tour! I was the only one there so it felt special! The museum is beautiful, the Halloween decorations were up, and it was brilliant! Definitely going back many times to this haunted history gem!

Our visit to the Iron Island Museum this past weekend for a private paranormal investigation was an absolute blast! Our friendly and extremely knowledgeable host Lisa walked us through the entire property and shared many interesting stories and historical facts about the site. Once our initial tour had concluded, Lisa was exceptionally generous with her vast array of paranormal investigation equipment, and was very helpful in pointing out the locations on the property where she had experienced activity in the past. We spent several hours in every part of the property and had a great deal of success during our investigation. We were thrilled to experiment with some equipment that is not part of our collection, and some great tools we had never encountered before, including a motion sensing Dinosaur toy which was great fun. Our time spent here was absolutely one of the best paranormal investigation experiences we've had and know we will return as soon as we can.

The wealth of knowledge from Marge and Linda of the history of the museum and before that when it was a church and a funeral home is amazing. The museum is well decorated with lots of artifacts from others. There is tons of history in this building and while we didn't see any paranormal activity, we want to book an overnight stay soon to do some investigating. The stories behind the ghosts seen there are interesting.

Went on a 7-1am visit. Definitely had some paranormal experiences there. The tour guide was fantastic. Gave us back ground on the building and anyone who still resides there. Lent us some equipment to use and explained how to use it(must be responsible for the equipment, very expensive!). Good overall experience.

This museum is a gem. It is fantastic for the buffalo lover and a great stop for those who like the strange and mysterious. Built in the 1800s orginally a church, it them became a funeral home in the 1950s. It had several funeral home names/owners until it was donated by one of the funeral home owners to a local woman who created a wonderful neighborhood museum. Filled with neighborhood items, buffaloian items, military uniforms, relics such as from the titanic, crystal beach, and central terminal and even funerary antiques. In this museum you are surrounded by history and spirits. Your never truly alone when you visit. A great place to experience the past and what buffalo was like years ago, and great place for any funeral/paranormal buff to see.
