Denison University Ghost




This photo was sent by Devin of DGBennett2@aol.com, a former student at Denison University at Granville, Ohio. The photograph is of the Curtis East Hall, taken September of 1991.

Devin said, "I have photographic evidence of a ghost which I encountered in the dormitory building of my college. This picture, which I have scanned and have not tampered with in any way, shows a plume of white matter...exactly where a friend of mine and I witnessed a drastic cold spot on a hot fall evening. "

"I went back to Denison last Homecoming Weekend in 1997 and spoke with current students living in that haunted dormitory building (Curtis East Hall in the West Quad) and there is still ghostly activity going on there. People in that area should check out that hall's basement (by room #6 near the water fountain where the photo was taken in 1991 by me... room #6 was my old room)."

"The next room over (past an EXIT hallway) was also haunted. My neighbor Ryan experienced a full scale apparition back in 1991 too. He told me reluctantly, and only after I assured him of my sincerity in my own experiences. HE told me that during the early morning hours one day, he woke to notice what he thought was a little girl sitting on the floor cross-legged by his bed. But upon a closer look, to his horror... she had NO HEAD. In it's place was what he described to be 'a hovering Japanese KABUKI-style mask... very sinister-looking'. He was terrified and angry at the same time, and lunged at the ghost...which vaporized instantly as he hit the concrete floor."

"And further down the hall from me, my friend Paul's girlfriend actually witnessed a similar apparition to what I photographed... she saw a plume of white smoke appear and shoot through the ceiling of Paul's room. I heard her scream and run up two flights of stairs. Whatever it was scared her deeply."
