These Haunted Halls: Inside Americas Most Haunted School, These Haunted Halls: Inside Americas Most Haunted School

In the quiet old school buildings, in the silence of its halls, are the echoes of the ages, are the voices of the past. Sometimes one can hear or see the specters. Other times one only senses that the buildings are looking at them, sizing them up, recognizing the presence. Muffled footsteps are heard in the empty gymnasium. The sounds of doors opening or closing are heard in unoccupied hallways. Motion sensor surveillance cameras start recording when no one is in the building. Children’s running footsteps are noticed in a deserted choir loft of the old chapel. A ghostly janitor vacuums in a locked dormitory room to the amazement of onlookers. Young lovers dance a waltz after hours, oblivious to the school principal looking on. And a spectral voice whispers messages of distress over a P.A. system late at night. Such are some of the paranormal experiences reported by students, teachers, police officers and administrators at a school that has operated first as a boarding school, then as a charter school and now as a military ROTC high school in rural, central Delaware for over one-hundred years. Its empty quiet halls are never really silent but will always whisper messages to those that have a mind to listen. In these pages you will experience what so many have experienced at St. Joseph’s Industrial School…should you wish to attend. Robin M.
