Real Haunted House

Airport High School

Columbia, South Carolina

The original part of this high school is said to be haunted by the ghost of George Pair, the school’s first principal. It is said that Mr. Pair frequently appears in the hall wearing a dark suit with a red tie. His wife who still teaches at the school says that George has told her he just wishes to protect the students. He closes the doors of teachers that work late. He follows students and teachers to their cars after late night activities. It is said that one may hear Mr. Pair’s footsteps walking through the hall though the halls were carpeted many years ago. It is said that this activity was caught on video by a group of adventurous teachers and students in 1994.

i think that many ghosts haunt school and churches, is this high school old? my high school gets haunted in a part of it called oakbrook, it used to be a mansion just outside of the school, the man who owned it left it to one of the old head teachers. it was said that a little girl was stabbed there, she has haunted the basement in oakbrook ever since. scary?

Heh, as a child in grade school I was a big fourth grader and we used to pick on the 3rd graders… A friend of mine locked 2 girls in the bathroom for the whole bloody mary thing… We taped a string to the light switch and had other girls stand on the toilets so when the lights went out they could flush them simotaniously…. *Strangest thing* we couldn’t get the door unlocked to let the girls out… ALL FOUR girls were beating on the door screaming after doing bloody mary… After the principal finally got the door open.. all the girls ran out their seperate ways… “we looked in the bathroom” and there were blood trickles all over the mirror.. wall by the sinks and the floor… “Not like alot.. but enough..” THe principal thought that maybe the “fright” of the situation caused on of the children to have a nose bleed, but the children were checked and none of them had….To this day if you ask one of those girls what happened in that bathroom.. they will not speak a word… as a matter of fact my bestfriend… is *Mute* hasn’t spoken a word since the incident… yes we got in trouble “loads” for what we did but we were children and didn’t really see any harm in it… for about 2 years after the incident..I had horrible nightmares… known in children as *night terrors* where you have a bad dream and wake up in a paralized state most of the time.. cold sweat and crying.. screaming… i don’t remember any of the dreams… but i was hospitalized for it… eventually they went away.. but i’ll never forget that day in school.. and as for the principal guy walking the halls… he’s probabley waiting for some kids to mess up so he can chop their heads off… LOL

hey my lovilies,
we are sophmores at airport high school, and we’ve had friends that have seen the ghost-lockers shaking on the old 100 hall-the works. principles and teacher have seen him, and an old janitor,who used to be his friend when he was living, talked to him as a ghost. basically our school is full of nutcases and crackheads, or hippie potheads *cough, cough* jake. I WANNA SEE THE GHOST TOO DAMNIT! :(

Hey guys,
I went to Pair elementary off of platt springs and can remember being freaked out at the painting of George I Pair always staring me down. The painting is one of those that the eyes follow you regardless, (scary as a kid). I moved across I-26 to attend Fulmer middle school where i played sports year round, but my point in writing is that i wrestled my 7th and 8th grade years across the road at Airport. I would sometimes have track then wrestling practice then basketball, so i would be at the school late in the OLD gym… I believe the school setup has changed since i wrestled (late 90′s), but I recall several nights waiting alone outside for my ride to pick me up with the eerie feeling that someone was waiting with me. Several times in the two year span i would hear the doors rattle, but i just believed it was pressure changes from AC or drafts. I was outside one evening waiting on my ride when i swore that i was being watched while standing near the breezeway to the old gym and i saw something over my shoulder… as i turned quick to see what it was i saw a shadow turn the corner on the other side of the gym headed towards the back of the school. I would be lieing if i said i wasnt concerned, but my ride showed up right about that time. The story that really got me was the week of our match with swansea perhaps? I was working out in the old gym alone, cause i came late from track as i was was on one of the machines i caught a cold draft and the hair on my neck stood up, my stomach dropped and i looked around, but saw nothing unusual after two quick glances the door leading to the hallway slammed shut and shook twice. I have never believed in ghost, so i ran to the door to let my coach know i was still in there, but noone was in the gym… anywhere its a fairly long hallway so i would have seen him. After a quick sip of water down by the wrestling mats i got chills again so i jogged back to the gym for a final weigh in only to find that the doors had been locked and yet again know sign of anyone. My family moved to Lexington that year so i never attended Airport as a student, but did visit an amazingly scary old lawyers house in lexington right before jake knotts bridge. That place was creepy. I graduated Lex in 03

Bloody Mary is nothing more than a Urban Legend. If you notice most of the postings refer to “my friend did it” or “I know someone who did it and they came out with scratches on their face”. Well duh, they scratched their own face trying to scare someone. If there is a malevolent force that is powerful enough to return from the dead why would they need a mirror? Why would you need to go into a darken room alone? Why would calling out Bloody Mary x times annoy it? If this were true I believe there would be other things that annoy it more, like being dead. Use some common sense, dead people don’t hurt you, it’s the living that you have to worry about. Also, they mention that someone in 1994 filmed the “ghost” at Airport High School. This would be a first, why you don’t see it is because it doesn’t exist. I don’t doubt that people’s imaginations run wild while they walk through a dark school. Old buildings crack and creek especially in the evening when the school is cooling down. Generally the heating units don’t run at night in order to save money. The combination of that and the heat absorbed from the sun causes the wood, metal, etc. to cool therefore contracting which is movement in which sound can be produced. A combination of these plus a wild imagination = a great story.

I go to AHS right now and i have had many run ins with Pair. one day i was sitting in a teachers class room on the 100 hall and the door was locked out side. no one else was in the room with me and the door opened by its self. i was wondering what happened so i got up and walked to the door. when i was about half a yard away from the the door it slammed in my face. i was terrified so i went to open the door and the door handle was ice cold and when i walked out into the hall it was cold (and it was like the 1st 2 weeks of school my senior year) i shut the door and went up to the office. i saw some where that some people got some sittings of Pair on tape I WANT TO SEE IT! many kids at AHS have had run ins… late at night practices games trick of treat lane… its scary going to a school thats haunted.

CHINNES (THAT’S THE OLD PRINCIPAL’S OFFICE)

well I see no one read the message or if they saw the grammar part, is illeterate as well. i think I may have seen someone I loved very much and I am sure that he is okay. The way I see it is they have never bothered me so why would I bother them. If they want to be seen they will. Don’t go around bugging them. Like if your lost, you will make sure you ask for directions if you really want to, and if they can’t tell you, you probably wouldn’t be angry at that person. I do enjoy hearing the stories though, some of these comments are funny. And some of this keyboard slang is hard to read…sooooo,it might not get read due to the simple fact that I am not in the mood to read a puzzle right now. And for the bloody mary thing, everyone is annoying the **** out of her and if you did that to me and I could not get away, AND you were the 100th person to do that to me THAT DAY, I would scratch your eyes out too.
