In Tara (Omsk region) they are discussing the mystery of the old mansion. The Trade House on the Market Square now houses a museum. But at the end of the 19th century, people lived here - the building belonged to merchants and was considered one of the most pompous buildings in the area.
A mysterious wanderer flying around the museum at night was discovered by local curators by accident. Several years ago, an alarm went off in the building. One of the workers had to be on duty at night. Then the ghost was seen for the first time.
- She dreamed of a man with a beard and hunting clothes so old. As she stood in surprise, he disappeared. Well, everyone thought that it was the owner of this house, - said Anna Sokolova, methodologist of the Tara Museum of History and Local Lore.
The trading house on the Market Square in Tara was built at the end of the 19th century by the Volkov merchants. Yakov Orlov worked as a clerk for them, and over time, moving up the service, became the successor of the building. In those years, the building was considered one of the most luxurious in the area. But after the revolution, Orlov's house with rich decoration was taken away, and he and his family were evicted. Strange sounds began to come just from those rooms where the spouses and their six children lived.
- Yes it's true! I hear a lot on TV, this is what they say, it is these walls, something like that happened before, they keep this whole story. And all this talk, yes, it's true, and I believe! - said a resident of the Tara region Raisa Moryakina.
The Omsk paranormal researcher Vladimir Krupko is more skeptical. The scientist is sure that in most cases the "ghost phenomenon" can be explained simply - the glare of the headlights is in the frame or atmospheric interference is to blame.
- We notice that not only the temperature changes, but also sounds appear at the same time, in the room there may be a feeling of some kind of light steps. That is, the human brain does not see what it really is, but the interpretation apparatus works, which goes through the familiar images, familiar situations in the person's head, - explained the ufologist Vladimir Krupko.
Perhaps the museum staff really meet in the corridors with the phantom of the former owner of the house, or maybe this is just the rich imagination of creative workers.
