Stevens is Haunted.

I'm sure of it. Last night I went and visited the oldest dorm on campus. In fact it's the oldest dorm still in use for its original purpose in the western united states. It's called stevens hall, it was built in 1895 and it's scary as hell. It's supposed to be all cute and old, but the fact that a murder took place in it, doesn't help. Yes, I said murder. This part of the story isn't legend, but actual fact. In the 70's a girl used to illegally hang out in the basement during the summer, for who knows why. Anyway, she eventually was murdered. The story is that when cleaning crews came to clean out the place before the school year started, they noticed a patch of carpet missing from the living room area which they assumed was just vandalism. Anyway, when they went down to the basement to clean, they opened the door to one of the rooms to discover blood all over the walls. Some nine months later, the body of this missing girl was found wrapped in the carpet that was stolen from Stevens. That part is true, whether or not all the stories of ghostly encounters are true as well, I don't know. But I visited that dorm last night and it was scarrrry. I'd love to visit it again when I bring up my camera, perhaps then I'll venture into the basement where most of the activity actually occurs. Scarrrrry.

Right now, I've got some friends coming up to my dorm, so I'd better clean up!!
