Norwich ghost stories are both plentiful and well known. The two most often mentioned are the haunting of Alumni Hall by students who supposedly died in the building and Alden Partridge’s (or someone’s) lingering presence in the old library building which is known as Chaplin Hall.
Alumni Hall: The Dorm Room That Nobody Wants
One of the most famous ghost stories at Norwich University is about the boarded-up dorm room in Alumni Hall. According to legend, a student hanged himself in the room, and several years later, his brother also committed suicide in the same room. Ever since, the room has been boarded up, and strange noises are said to emanate from it. Students have reported hearing unexplainable sounds and feeling a cold presence near the room.
Chaplin Hall: The Ghostly Visitor
Chaplin Hall is another hall at Norwich University that is said to be haunted. A ghostly figure is rumored to hang around the front door, and some students have reported seeing strange apparitions in the hallways. Chaplin Hall used to be a library, and it is said that books would fly off the shelves on their own, adding to the supernatural atmosphere of the hall. One former librarian has suggested that these haunting tales originated with some mischievous electrical engineering students in the early 1970s, who wired the building with sound and lighting effects to spook their fellow students.
Ransom Hall and Hawkins Hall: More Ghostly Happenings
Ransom Hall and Hawkins Hall are two more halls at Norwich University that are rumored to be haunted. Students have reported waking up in the middle of the night and feeling an oppressive weight on their chest, as though something is holding them down. Others have reported seeing shadowy figures and hearing unexplainable noises.
Are the Ghostly Tales Real?
Despite the numerous ghost stories at Norwich University, many people remain skeptical about their authenticity. Some believe that the tales are simply urban legends that have been passed down from generation to generation. However, many students and faculty members swear that they have experienced supernatural occurrences in the halls of Norwich University.
Conclusion
Norwich University has a rich history and many traditions, including its ghost stories. From the boarded-up room in Alumni Hall to the ghostly figure in Chaplin Hall, the campus is full of chilling tales that have been passed down over the years. Whether you believe in the paranormal or not, the ghostly tales of Norwich University will continue to captivate and intrigue those who are brave enough to explore its haunted halls.
