The Story
A female apparition and doors moving without a visible person are reported in Speed Hall. Southern Spirit Guide identifies this as the Union College building associated with the financial-aid office ghost story; the woman’s identity remains unknown. Southern Spirit Guide resolves the previously vague office name to Speed Hall. The directory’s private-house origin conflicts with other historical accounts and is omitted. Pfeiffer Hall is a separate uncounted candidate.
