Peabody Hall

07.23.2005 | 9:58 pm | Mentor, Ohio, United States

Once an all female, dorm, the presently coed dorm is allegedly haunted by former university president, Helen Peabody. Since turning coed, the males in the dorm have been constantly harassed by what they seem to think is the ghost of Mrs. Peabody. The females, on the other hand, are not bothered in any way.

  3. I went to Miami U. and lived in this dorm for two years. Though I didn’t have a personal experience with “Helen”, the police were called and responded to an incident in the triple next to my room. Apparently one of the guys in the room brought a girl into the attic and was trying to scare her by provoking the ghost. Later that night one of his roommates (a football player and extremely honest guy) woke up screaming he couldn’t breath and that something was on his chest. From what i’ve heard the phone began ringing and a computer mouse started clicking, posters fell off the wall, and a battery supposedly flew across the room and struck one of the guys. Normally I wouldn’t believe this kind of thing, but I listened to a message on their phone the next day, in which you can hear all three guys freaking out about the football player being stuck to the bed, and in a very faint voice you can hear the word “leave”. It was very eerie. Anyways the police did come to our dorm, woke everyone up and made a report. I’m not sure I believe the dorm is haunted, but I certainly wouldn’t go around the place cursing Helen.

  8. Oh, my poor dimwitted friend. Are you not aware that common interests can be shared by those other than family or lovers? One day, you will have a friend - and one of the first things you will try to learn about them is how old they are.

    But alas… ye shall be named lezbo.

  11. I lived in the triple…and it’s all true. MUPD wrote the report as an unexplained phenomenon. I now believe.
