👻 TALES OF TEXAS THURSDAY! 👻
Everyone knows Dr Pepper was invented right here in Waco… but did you know there are also stories of something a little more mysterious lingering at the historic Dr Pepper museum? 🥤👻
According to reports from museum staff over the years, the building has been the setting for some unexplained experiences, including shadowy figures, apparitions, and even disembodied voices. 👀
The building itself is now more than a century old, leaving plenty of room for stories about who—or what—might still be hanging around.
In 2009, museum staff reportedly invited McLennan County Paranormal Investigations to investigate the claims. The investigation resulted in reports of unexplained phenomena, including floating orbs and voices from unknown sources.
And naturally, Waco has its own theory… 👀
Could one of the spirits be connected to the early days of Dr Pepper? Perhaps even Charles Alderton, the pharmacist credited with creating the famous drink? 🥤
We can't say for sure—but if there is a Dr Pepper ghost wandering the halls, maybe it's just making sure that secret recipe stays secret! 😂👻
