Love Letter...

When I came back from class today, I found a letter under my door on Carlow stationary that said,

“TO: Resident Students

FROM: Mary Beth Halferty (and signed)
Residence Life Office

DATE: October 28, 2004

RE: Ghost in Dormitory"

Apparently, there were girls running around, freaking out on the 6th floor last night about ghosts being about the floor. There were girls who refused to go into the bathroom alone. (If the girls like to watch each other pee, among other kinky bathroom acts, they shouldn’t try and cover it up with a ghost story.) Mary Beth wanted to clear up the rumors about a ghost of a Sister of Mercy who committed suicide “years ago.” Sounds like a spooky tale to me! The story is supposedly false. However,

“The crosses above the doors on the 6th floor were put there by the director of the residence halls in the early 1990’s. She put them there to stop the very same rumors that we have now.”

So, she put crosses up to prove the rumors about ghosts were not true. Yeah, okay. If they weren’t true, there’d be no need for crosses. Actually, no there was no ghost when she put the crosses up. Later, that former residence hall director hanged herself in the 6th floor bathroom, where the freshmen girls watch each other pee.

Also, if there are any concerns, Sister Maureen Crossen will be in the lobby of FWH November 3rd, 7 pm for exorcism requests. I don’t think that a Sister is qualified to do this, but she’s all we’ve got in this time of need. If anyone is learned in exorcism, help a Sister out.

By clicking on the title, you will find a link that takes you to a list of haunted places in Pittsburgh. Carlow is on there, but it’s room 947 that is specifically listed.

But, I know for a fact that room 942 is haunted in the dorms…
