The Ghost of Lake Forest
At my school, Lake Forest
College, the theatre is supposed to be haunted by the ghost of a little
boy that died there a number of years ago. It is certainly a creepy
building. Mainly at night, lights have turned on and off, doors have
opened/shut/slammed, stage equipment has moved, and odd noises have been
heard. The actors here are also so scared of the basement that ALL of
us refuse to go down into the basement alone, even during the day. At
night, we'll go down in groups as large as possible and stay for as
little time as possible. It just feels evil down there. Plus several
of the actors (myself included) say that there is a certain corner of
the basement that feels colder, or eviler.
Even with all of the lights
lit, it looks a little cloudier in that corner. It is a very eerie
building.
Our chapel is also supposed to be haunted, but I don't know the story or
have any first hand experience with it.
