Is the Green River Library Really Haunted?

Many residents and workers have claimed the Sweetwater County Library in Green River is haunted.

The current library location is built on the ruins of an old Green River cemetery that was in use from the late 1800s to the early 1900s. When the cemetery began to run out of space, it was moved. Caskets, bones, and headstones were all dug up and moved to the new location, yet some are believed to be left behind.

There have been past reports of people hearing whispered names, computers typing, lights being turned off and on their own, and doors opened and closed.

The story goes, it is the remaining buried that supposedly haunts the library.
