more hauntings
my sorority house is supposedly haunted, but i''m not sure if i've really experienced it. some of my sisters and i did attept to see for sure, (as sure as you can get with my ouija board), but were scared out of our minds when a dry erase board came crashing to the floor and we took that as a sign that we should stop. i'm not sure if it's gravity that's to blame or if it's our ghost. none of the older girls would tell me any stories, and the only thing they say is that the stories are really freaky. on campus there's at least 2 other sororities that are haunted and one frat that used to be an old mental institution that performed illigal shock therapy(that's what people have told me), and it's supposely haunted, but i've never been in, given the fact that i'm scared of the building.
this is kind of a random freaky thing - the building that used to be the old mental ward for the hospital, and is now a psych research building, still has some rooms with padded walls. one of the dorms on campus is haunted by 2 girls who committed suicide as a result of a suicide pact, and there are a few buildings that are haunted by the university's first(?) president.
but the oddest attraction by far, i think, in iowa city is the black angel. there's numerous stories as to why it's black, but when ever i go out to see it, something happens and then i start to freak out. maybe it's the cemetery or the people i'm with. i don't know.
