A film crew has permission to bring their high-tech gear to Albert Lea to check out rumors that the Freeborn County Courthouse is haunted.
Last week the Freeborn County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to give the crew from "Dead Reckoning" access to the courthouse, including at night.
Producer Scott Roberts says the group is gathering material to pitch to major cable television networks. He expects the crew to be at the courthouse in March.
Cast member Warren Anderson says that for years there have been stories about supernatural activity there, which could be linked to a suicide in the 1930s.
Anderson says his team uses night vision cameras, digital voice recorders and electromagnetic field detectors to look for ghosts.
The suicide was discovered July 5, 1938, when a custodian went into the clock tower of the courthouse. He found a decomposing body hanging from a rafter.
