A Home for the Haunted: The Pythian Castle, Part Two | Grave Talks CLASSIC

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! PART TWO

The Pythian Castle in Springfield, Missouri, has a history that goes far beyond what most visitors expect.

Built in 1913 by the Knights of Pythias, the castle served as a home for aging members and orphaned children before being taken over by the U.S. military during World War II. Over time, its role shifted—from care facility to rehabilitation center and prisoner-of-war site—adding layers of history that still seem to linger within its walls.

Melissa Thuro takes us inside the castle to explore both its past and the activity reported there today. From disembodied voices and unexplained movement to encounters that continue to be experienced throughout the building, the reports span multiple areas of the property—including spaces tied to its wartime use.

She shares what investigators and visitors have encountered, how the location is explored today, and why Pythian Castle continues to stand out as one of the region’s most active paranormal sites.

It’s a look at a location shaped by history—and the possibility that not everything tied to it has moved on.
