Actors Studio

: "The Actors Studio is located next door to The Community Playhouse. A man thought to be killed when the studio was Rainbow Bar and Grill haunts it. He was supposedly dancing with a woman whose husband was in the war. He came back and saw them together. In a fit of rage, the solider killed him. The victim''s ghost now wanders the studio whistling Twinkle Twinkle Little Star."


Gitchie Manitou State Preserve

: "Incredible place historically.  Occupied by the Oneota American Indians in the late 1600''s and later the Yankton Sioux American Indians until the early 1900''s, this continual American Indian occupation was a ceremonial place covered in large boulders that were thought to have healing properties.  Large boulders survive to this day with the "dimples" in the rock caused from the American Indian''s tapping instruments into the rock and then grinding the chips of the boulder into powder to me mixed with other herbs and grasses as medicine.  At one time it was believed that in excess of 10,000 American Indians occupied this site.  Some excavations have discovered human projectile points dating back over 8500 years old."


The Judge Amidon Monument"

: "Tall stone monument that overlooks Sioux Falls north side near the cemetery is the place where a South Dakota farmer / judge Mr. Amidon was killed by American Indians in an uprising as he plowed his field.  His 14 -year-old son was sh`t to death with arrows through his chest as he tried to help his father as well.  The monument is dedicated in their honor.  Strange feelings of being watched are found here as well as occasional orb lights.  It''s not known due to the very close proximity to the cemetery very close by if the spirits are from there or the judge and his son."
