More than 2,000 people have shown interest in an overnight ghost investigation scheduled for November 13 at the Idaho Tuberculosis Hospital in Gooding. Over 70 attendees have already confirmed their plans to join the event.

Organized by SpookyUtah22, the event takes place on a Friday the 13th, a date popular with paranormal enthusiasts. The former hospital in Gooding has previously hosted the crew from the television show Ghost Adventures. Participants will explore the site overnight and receive breakfast the following morning.

The investigation is open to adults seeking a scare after the Halloween season. Organizers noted that the event offers another opportunity for locals to experience paranormal activity later in the year. The second planned event for the evening after the main investigation is already fully booked.

Space inside the building is limited for participants who intend to stay overnight. Organizers are managing the number of attendees to ensure enough room for people to rest after the investigation. The event provides a structured look at the abandoned medical facility, which is known for its history and reported hauntings.

The Idaho Tuberculosis Hospital stands as a landmark for those interested in the local paranormal scene. The upcoming date of November 13 aligns with the superstition surrounding the 13th day of the month. This specific timing draws fans of the genre from across southern Idaho.

Registration remains open for the November 13 session. Attendees should secure their spots early, as the second event has filled its capacity. The investigation will conclude with a morning meal, allowing participants to end their night in the historic building.
