One thing that really stuck out about these experiences is that they all seemed to concentrate on Wilson Hall. Wilson Hall is an all-women's dormitory. It was built between 1960 and 1962, and opened as the Women's Upperclass Hall. It was re-dedicated in 1977 in honor of Ms. Damaris O. Wilson, Dean of Women from 1952-1972.
According to numerous sources, students staying in the dorms have similar experiences. The terrible nightmares mentioned do occur and are typically said to involve the students dreaming that they are being murdered, and in some cases, are committing the murder. It is also said that those who have previously shown no signs of depression or anxiety feel unaccounted for fear and sadness while staying in the dorms.
The third floor of Wilson Hall is one of the building's hot-spots. Some have seen a young girl wearing white roaming the halls. It is believed that a former student committed suicide in room 320 by hanging herself from the clothes bar in the closet. Doors opening, voices, and other noises have been observed coming from the room.
Other hot-spots seem to be the 4th floor, the basement rec room, and even the first floor, where a student observed the phantom sounds of a group of people running down the hall laughing.

i spent two years at c.u. in the "south tower". although it's relatively new, it seemed to be teeming with activity. from objects vanishing only to reappear later in obvious places to loud conversations from empty rooms.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your stories!
DeleteI lived on the 3rd floor in Sarvay (re-named Wilson) in 1970. There was a period of time during that year when a lot of paranormal activity was happening and those of us who lived on the 3rd floor were so anxious and edgy that the football coach sent some players over to stay on the 4th floor (the attic) to see if they could see what was happening. I think they thought it was "real" people doing the things we were experiencing. I moved to the towers the next year and agree with the comment above. Lot's of activity there. I also had friends who lived in a men's dorm named White Hall. Many stories there too. When I have more time to write about my experiences I'll send to you.
