At Minnesota, we have lots of old houses (Fraternity & Sorority). Our chapter house is large for our campus (houses about 40 women) because it is actually two houses put together. Our sorority has had our current house for about the last hundred years. Unlike some other chapters, I am fairly sure we have never had a house at a different campus location. For a while, the house next door was Delta Upsilon. At some point (maybe around the 1950's?) a fire nearly destroyed the DU house. The fraternity ended up relocating and we bought their house so we could expand into it. Most people say that there were brothers, and possibly a girlfriend, that died on the third floor of the DU house. This is often taken for fact, but I'm not really sure. It would, however, make sense as to why the fraternity would choose to move, and not rebuild the house.
We have all the regular "ghost" behavior: lights and other electrical appliances- computers, cd players, radios- making strange noises, turning on and off erratically, doors and windows opening and closing on their own, etc. I believe in ghosts, but most of this I still attribute to the fact that we have 2 old houses, now wired together. I put much more weight on stories where people say they have seen/felt ghosts. This is the best story I've heard, and it was from someone I knew, so I actually heard her tell me about it...
It was the morning of the homecoming parade and I'm pretty sure my sister was a New Member at the time. All the New Members walk in the Homecoming parade, and the rest of the house gathers at the paired fraternity to show support and spirit and do cheers in front of the Housefront. My sister was feeling really sick, so someone from her pledge class was nice enough to bring her back to the house and put her to sleep in the townie room, before continuing down the parade route with the other New Members. This means everyone in my house should have either been in the parade or at the fraternity. But my sister is SURE that someone was in the townie room with her. In fact, later at mock awards she wanted to "say thank you to whoever it was stayed with me on Homecoming when I was feeling so sick" and everyone replied that no, no one else had been in the house. But my sister is sure that someone was sitting next to her on the bed, and kind of petting her forehead/hair.
spooky!
