"Columbus - Mississippi University for Women - Calloway Hall - The ghost of Mary can be seen in the top floor window looking for her lost love. Sometimes she visits the freshman girls at night and sits on the edge of their beds to weep."


The legend of Calloway Hall was that it was turned into a hopsital for hurt soliders during one of the wars. Anyway a RN named Mary worked there and fell in love with one of the hurt soliders while careing for him.
The legend is he was shipped somewhere else without her knowledge & she grieved herself to the point where she went up to the top floor to the clock tower & killed herself.
I went to school there Fall of 2003, I didnt live in Calloway Hall but one of my Highlander pledge sisters did & some really weird things happened while I visited her room a few times. The first thing that ever happened to us together was we was on our way to pick up somethings from her room for a retreat & it appeared someone was laying in her bed! The tvs & radios would go on and off, you could hear footsteps above her room which was the top floor.
The elevators were fixed to where NOBODY could go to the top floor. It was also stated to all students not to even try to attempt to go up there. It was pretty freaky & I never went there by myself especially at night!! It got so bad that my pledge sister eventually moved into my room in Kincannon Hall! Every Octoberfest Calloway Hall is turned into a Haunted House & people go through the bottom floors. Its pretty creepy!
