Here in Indiana, I live in the oldest dorm on the campus. It's also the only all same sex dorm, so there aren't a lot pf people in it. But is that the real reason??
East is supposedly haunted. It's an old brick building with a creepy basement with yellow lights, so of course it's going to give off that "willy" feel. But lately we have been freaking ourselves out a little.
Everyone in the building, especially on my end of the second floor, has reported weird sounds (which may just end up being obnoxious neighbors) as well as doors popping open. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal, but our door are different. They are heavy wood, and our knobs and latches lock in place as soon as the door is closed. When it's closed, it's closed. You can open it easily enough with the knob, but it's not coming loose without it. Well, they pop open nonetheless. Mine has done this countless of times. I'll hear the metal pop and my door drifts open. I know I close my door when I come into the room, so it freaks me out. Being a ghost hunters fanatic, I decided to try and debunk it SciFi style. I went down the hall, opened and closing some of my friends doors as well as the dividing door, thinking that maybe the air from the other doors caused it. The door only jiggled, which is completely different than coming completely open.
There have been other things, like the incident my RA explained to me and Heather one day, in which she was laying in bed and something was pressing against her and she couldn't get out of bed. She admits that it was weird, and that she didn't really know what to think. I have had some wierd going ons with my curtains, but I'm going to watch them and note what I'm doing more with them to take out the possibility of human error.
NO ONE likes going up to the third floor. At least the half where no one is living. It's always dark, and smells funny. The girls on the third floor use it to play soccer in the hallways sometimes, but they turn on the lights first and never really go alone.
Always something interesting happening!
