First, my interesting fact about Ted Bundy: I just learned about a year ago that my boss's cousin was one of Ted Bundy's victims out west: Roberta Parks.

The Kappa house at Iowa State used to be a Baptist Student center before we purchased it and took over. Rumor has it that in the late 1910s a young women, called Annie, died there (whether from murder or natural causes is unclear) and she still haunts the chapter house to this day, especially room 14. There have been numerous Annie sightings in hallways and one by a former roommate where Annie was hovering over my own (blood) sleeping sister!

Annie usually just makes a lot of mischief such as turning radios and tvs off and on in the middle of the night, turning on hair dryers, opening closet doors and making books fall off shelves.

One year some girls got together and bought a ouija board for room 14. The fall of my sophomore year two other girls and I came back from a party and got the brilliant idea to contact Annie with the ouija board. We sat down on the floor, shut the lights and blinds and lit some candles (oops, fire hazard!) and proceeded with our mission. We did get "something" who "talked to us" and claimed she was Annie. She said had been killed by a man named Wesley but didn't mean us any harm. The freakiest thing was about 5 minutes into our session, the flames on the candles went really low (but not out) and stayed that way--no flickering or anything, even when we moved--until we said goodbye to Annie. They then went back up to normal. I know I wasn't moving the little triangle piece and the other two girls swore they weren't moving it either (though I'm not so sure about that) but the candle thing was enough to freak me out!
