Bockscar
The Bockscar is a B-29 Superfortress bomber that dropped the atomic bomb codenamed "Fat Man" over the Japanese city of Nagasaki in 1945. The plan had been used on at least three other combat missions over Japan before dropping a nuclear weapon that leveled 44% of the city and killed 35,000 people.
Same say the spirit of a small Japanese boy is forever attached to the Bockscar plane, and his spirit can be seen running around the area at night, usually when most people have left the museum.
