The Story

Whittier’s abandoned Buckner Building has a reputation for lingering military-era spirits. Haunted Places describes the sprawling former complex, with its theater, bowling alley and other amenities, as haunted by presences from its past. The account offers no named ghost or detailed eyewitness case. Its reputation is distinct from the stories told about nearby, occupied Begich Towers.
