THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Several buildings at Randolph-Macon College are associated with longstanding paranormal traditions. Students and faculty have reported apparitions, phantom footsteps, and unexplained activity in residence halls and academic buildings.
At Randolph-Macon College, three places are rumored to be haunted. At Mary Branch, a girls’ dorm, at least two ghosts are said to reside. Doors open and close by themselves, and objects are moved or disappear. In the SAE Fraternity House, witnesses have described strange noises and apparitions of soldiers from the waist up, thought to be walking on the former floor (which was much lower). And at Wash Frank Hall, the apparition of a man dressed in period clothing was seen.
