Oh please. I have lived in NC my whole life and so far I have heard this about let’s see……..NC State Univ – Raleigh, Queens College – Charlotte and at least one other Elem School somewhere east of Raleigh.

Yeah right I use to go to that school!!! Never heard a THING. Plus the orphanage was closed in 1928 and burned in 1929!

ok first of all i am a student of east mcdowell jr high school i am in the 7th grade and my 2nd period teacher said that the childrens home closed ayear before the fire so there was no kids to be berned.
so if you really belive this junk you are crazy and i stood on the tiennis coart at 12:00 and didnt haer or see any thing

it’s really true and i heard someone hung thereself in the library and at night you could hear the girl screaming for her last breath.

well I heard if you shake your ***** too long you can ejaculate but i dont know, maybe its just a myth. or someone playing pranks on people.

about all i learned is that 7th graders cant type and that people depend on word of mouth waaaaaaaay to much

Anyone interested in the paranormal, I am co founder of a local group in Fayetteville, North Carolina called NAM GHOST HUNTING SOCIETY. My partner and I are looking for some new members willing to go on investigations. We have already partially investigated the Vander Light haunting and are currently working on a new investigation at the Clarion Prince Charles Hotel. We still have to go back to with our equipment to Vander, but we did catch pictures of several orbs and ectoplasm. Our contact info is on our web site. http://www.namghs.com.

OMG!!! I am going to East next year!!!! if I die then its yall’s fault!!!

I went to East Jr. High. And I highly believe in ghost and sprits. The home did not close a year before it burned down. My senior year in high school i did a two week investagation for a report on McDowell County history. I did not experince any thing while i was on the courts. But ghosts don’t just appear on cue either. . .they show there selves when they want to.

I am from NC and have grown up hearing these same stories. I find that sometimes the stories change and a lot of times, stories get posted but are not built on facts, i.e ‘orphanage closing down a year before it burned down’. Facts like these should be known before investigated. First do research to find out if the facts support the claim.

I went to east junior high in 1956 thru 1960; but it was a high school at that time. I’m 67 years old. I also walked from STUMP TOWN to go to town. I used a short cut through the area where ELHANAN orphanage had burned down. The large front steps were cement and they were still laying there intact.I often sat on them. If I remember they were five steps high. Me and several other kids often played cowboys there. We had heard stories about the place being haunted, and we never went through there at night. It was spooky even in the daylight. Randall

Ok yea i dont believe that one but i go to east mcdowell and i know that ,for a fact, it is haunted. There is an attic above the auditorium and i went up there today and i felt my heart drop to my stomach. There were boxes in there and one light bulb and a table with some chairs. The chairs were squeeking. It sounded like something was pushing them back and forth. If ya wanna know more about the experiences there email me at shelbyhigdon22@yahoo.com!!

Ok..I go there and I am in 9th grade. I believe in the whole paranormal thing. I then found out that I am a sensitive. (Where you can tell when someone wants to reach you but not strong enough) The whole thing about the burning about my school is a bunch of ****. BUT, the part where the teacher hangs “herself” is true. Her students got mad at her and hung her in the auditorium. Trust me..being in there alone with the lights off is freaking scary. And also the old Library too.

I have been a Paranormal Investigator for more than a year now…and I have seen things , felt thing AND HEARD things you WOULD NOT believe …Karebear I too am a sensitive and my sensitivity was heightened when I was the Channel for a spirit recently… to all of thsoe who dont believe …..I KNOW the Paranormal exists
