From
Heather's awesome journal,
Spinning Free:
I was too tired to write about tonight, so I'll let Heather tell it:
"Rainy rainy rainy day. Blech. It wouldn't have been so bad if it weren't so cold. Although, it did make the ghost walk that much more interesting. I went on a ghost walk with Chris and Racheal tonight, we took a tour around campus and heard all the ghost stories. Of course, because of the segment I did last year, I knew most of the stories, and I've been in the most haunted place on campus before, so...ghost walk wasn't much of anything for me. But they did give us free apple cider!
The only thing that scared me was almost stepping on one of the Andrews, because I didn't notice he was lying on the stairs in Elderdice, pretending to be dead. I would have felt really bad if I had stepped on him. :P
It was kind of cool, though. The other Andrew was at the top of Elderdice, pretending to be the famed ghost of the student who killed himself up there. He was throwing books or something against the floor and banging against the wall. The time that Chris and Jess and Joe and I went up to Elderdice, we were watching as Joe was fumbling with the lock trying to jimmy it open, and someone--something?--threw something down the stairs and it landed against the door with a thud. See, Elderdice is three sets of stairs. The first two lead to floors of single rooms. The last set of stairs leads to the very top of the building. In front of you is a locked door that leads to the haunted room. It's so offlimits that there isn't even a handle on the outside, just a lock. On either side of the door are two other rooms, offices that are just used for storage now. Anyway, when we heard that loud banging on the door, we just kind of looked at each other and decided to bolt in the opposite direction.
Although, Chris will swear up and down that there's nothing up there, cause she went up there in the dark by herself and didn't feel anything. ;) Ask her sometime about the ghost she saw in Blanche."
But... can you tell that I am advertising the
cool, deep sensuality that is Spinning Free?
