They managed to find only Nicodemus hiding there, and shot him as he fled through a hidden tunnel. For years after that he haunted the building through its possession by several different sororities. The Zeta Tau Alpha girls had extensive encounters with him in 1972 and 1973. Later it was the Sigma Nu frathouse, then Alpha Omicron Pi; now it's Sigma Phi Epsilon. Do the Greek groups keep moving because of the strange disturbances, or is it just a coincidence? I'd have to say that, if you're a ghost and you're stuck haunting someplace through eternity, you could do a lot worse than a sorority house.

This is the house I lived in! And for the record, the hidden passage entrance was in my roomate's closet- you can (or could 15 years ago) open it up. I lived there for the entire school year and never had anything strange happen- I was even in the "haunted" room.
Oh, and AOII didn't move to a new house because of Nicodemus, we moved to a new house because the old house could only house 25 women and didn't have a room large enough for the entire chapter- we would have to have part of rush outside in a tent to accomidate everyone. The house we are in now houses ~50 and is more on par with the other sorority houses at OU.
Sig Ep did not have a house, so when AOII moved, it was a perfect fit for them (aside from all the floral wallpaper).
