The Story

HauntedPlaces.org collects reports of alarms sounding, calls from disconnected phones and lights glowing in the empty school. A former pupil describes an elderly woman's face at a cafeteria window and unexplained auditorium piano music; another contributor recalls misty figures upstairs. The accounts span different decades rather than identifying one agreed-upon ghost.
