St. Mary’s Hall used to be a convent, and there are rumors of a nun who hanged herself. Today, St. Mary’s is believed to be haunted by both students and night shift custodial workers. One nighttime janitor claimed to have heard a radio blaring from behind a closed door; upon entering the vacant room, the music stopped and the janitor discovered the radio was unplugged. Several janitors have also reported hearing what sounds like water splashing from someone swimming in the St. Mary’s pool at all hours of the night. However, upon entering the poolroom, no one is present and the water is completely still. This has happened on more than one occasion. In addition, people have reported hearing a piano being played in an empty music room. Security guards have also claimed to hear banging on the walls and doors coming from the kitchen. The oddest thing about all of these occurrences is that they took place during the university’s “off-season,” when students had left the campus for the semester and the dorms were unoccupied.
