wel to me it look like you do not have a ghost but a sick man who haveing a good time with all the kids but your story is a joke so stop makeing things up and find us something real

what is the SW Brown story? i saw his site today but i cant find anything about the story..

Just So everyone reading this has a full and legit understanding of heffron hall…i live here in winona mn, i have been in heffron hall. i know that the story goes deeper than what this site says. Yes there were two priest fighting for head positions here at this university. One of the priests resided in the hall itself before it became dormitory. The priest was in his room and at some point was reading the Holy Bible. The bible remained open when he fell asleep and the bible lay on the table beside his bed. The following morning when someone went to wake the sleeping priest, they found his body in sleep position, charred. The bible too, had been found burned.no fowl play was suspected, and no one was ever charged with the crime. The other priest had no involvement. The only freaky part was that the bible when later examined, had only one section not burnt. The section was in relation to what had happened to him, and since then things have been reported to still be happening to the students within the dorms. I had a friend who switched dorms because she felt like someone was watching her, and she heard things she couldn’t explain. I know the place is haunted and the spirit of the ghost is in those halls…and as long as the university stands….he will be there. He still is.

The story on S.W. brown is crazy…..crazy but real. This is what i know by my own real experience. He was supposedly a warlock. At some point in his death he cast out a curse on the city of winona stating that anyone to live here will never be able to leave. This town is a F****** blackhole. I have lived many places and still somehow, my mom when i was a kid always came back here….and well thanks to her…..here i still am. Now the haunting experience part. In woodlawn cemetary, he has a crypt that is high on the bluff, on the right upper side of the location. Now people in this town are rude and because of this supposed curse, people still hate him. His gravesite is the only site i have ever seen people disrespect so bad. People throw trash into his crypt, they have tried to burgalarize it, and have just tried in general to f*** the place up, and all the other gravesites are beautiful and well taken care of. In this cemetary the place is maintained by staff, and by the families of the dead. This particular grave however is almost forgotten. Never any flowers, or stops from family morning his passing, or even regarding it for that matter. On many occasions me and a good friend of mine used to go out there and it was our special interest. Some locals who know the stories of the cemetary will tell you that if you take digital cameras and try to take pictures of certain spots the camera will die. Even one with a full battery will all of a sudden shut off. I have a million and one pics of the S.W. site, and for what showed up on film i think i am lucky to have the pictures. the first one is of my friend standing in the front looking into the gated middle section of the crypt, no one around here, and this was at about dusk. Now know i took these with her disposable camera (so i couldnt look back at what i took), midsummer, at around dusk. the next picture is strange. Facing the crypt dead on- there is a soft grassy like small hill that wraps around it leading into the bluff. the 2nd pic, i took dead on with her still in the picture, she is just turning her head around to look at me, and in the corner of the developed film, you see a smoke like fog creeping into the upper left corner at the top of the crypt. In the third developed picture you see her looking at me and the smokey fog creeeps down further and thicker around the left side of the hill surrounding the crypt, the other side is crytal clear. the fourth picture, its what scared us. the fourth picture is a gray haze, with just a hint of clearing to make out my friend standing by the entrance of the crypt, it was as if he knew that we were there and still by some means didnt want for us to have those pictures. Before the pictures were taken we spent alot of time out at his grave because Woodlawn is beautiful during the summer and is quiet and peacful. We enjoyed spending time out there, like a world outside of winona talking and discovering its mysteries. to the point that like the families of the dead we cared for his gravesite, picking up the disaster people turned his eternal home into. If i could tell you more about him i would, but between my best friend and i we isnt a monster. She even has two pieces of his crypt in her room. Two tiny pieces that are now charms for necklaces (like a token from a lost family member-not like cults and demon worship bullS***). Dont judge her either if you think that taking a part of him with her is wrong…….so is trashing a holy burial site on sacred ground with trash spit and vandalism.
We respect the dead….why cant other people?

I am a SMU student and I have lived in Heffron for more that a year. I can tell you tried and true that Heffron Hall IS NOT, IS NOT, IS NOT haunted. It is a fabrication. I love the story and I really want it to be true, but it is false. Also that sick M*^%#$ Fu*$!@ that said the priests were after boys is wrong, wrong, and sick in the head. The story is 100% true, and it has nothing to do with young boys as this is, and always has been a COLLEGE, not a school for young children.
The Story remains the same, and true, and Heffron, unfortunately, is not haunted.

I’m having difficulty finding images of the “Demon Door” online, but I know for a fact that the Demon Door is real. I have seen it and I am searching through a huge pile of Mini-DV tapes with video footage of that very door. I hope that tape is in my pile! If I remember correctly, the wood grain of the door has a large “cloaked figure” with two angry looking faces hovering over his shoulders. I remember the faces resembled a cross between that of a bat’s and a dog’s.

I also heard that they have tried to change that door on several occasions, and each time, faces would later appear in the natural curves of the wood grain, and that they have finally given up on spending money replacing that cursed door. I kinda hope it is still there!

Do you know of any existing photographs of that door?

I lived 3rd Heffron for a year and never saw or heard a thing. There were stories about the WWII era on campus.

I lived in Heffron Hall from 9/60-6/62 and was on campus for two more years after that. I saw no charred door, heard no footsteps. The story of the good Bishop being shot was barely known in those days. As indicated in the above post, the ghost came from a young man who was found in the hill that we knew as “baldy”. The young man was involved with the V-12 program in World War II. Around 1966 I escorted a youth campus and the Ghost story was completely different. Sounds a bit like the telephone game to me.

This is the second year I’ve lived on third floor Heffron at Saint Mary’s and nothing has EVER happened to me. No strange noises, no blood in the bathroom (probably an Asian student being unhygienic as usual), and no ghosts! Saint Mary’s Hall on the other hand… Haunted as hell! I’ve seen dark figures, noises, doors closing, scary!

The “Demon Door”, is the biggest joke I know. I worked maintenance this past summer for SMU and if you ask anyone at maintenance about the “Demon Door” they will laugh and ask where you hear that story. That door, as every maintenance worker here will tell you is the original door that was put on that door way. I even got in the closet behind the door…nothing spooky there, just a storage and furnace closet.

I can write better stoies than this and I write action and adventure

this is the worst story i’ve evr read!

I went to a hockey camp there and ghostly things randomly happening. Things were moving by them selves and we were alone we would also hear unexplained sounds all the time.

I was also a St. Mary’s student, and I can assure you–it is haunted. I never experienced anything beyond the overwhelming feeling that someone was watching at me, or standing right behind me. Oh, and I have felt drafts as well. But, I don’t think the hauntings were isolated to that building alone. There were a lot of strange and creepy things that happened throughout the campus. What about the mass drownings that nobody could explain, or the woman that hung herself on one of the stair banisters? I used to run in woods right behind the dorms with a girl, and one day she refused to run with me because she swore that while she was jogging the night before someone was chasing her through the woods. She was terrified to the point that she was crying. She never ran outside again after that. Very creepy place. Oh, I also heard that WSU is haunted as well.

I was once walking through Heffron Hall and I noticed something tugging at my pants. I tried to hold them up but the force was too great. The next thing I knew my pants were off and they flew up and went through a doorway. My pants were gone. I was alone when this happened. I had to walk through the campus in my skivvies. I will never go back to Heffron Hall. I also never recovered my pants.

I lived in Winona Since 1981 an Ive always heard about St. Mary’s. My friends an I rode our skateboards in the under ground tunnels that connect to all the buildings an you can hear an feel weird things down their too. An sometimes you can see the black light they got on in Hefforn Hall turn off an on at night.

Hey guys, I’m a paranormal investigator, my team is called ‘Female Phantom Squad’ we are having our first investigation here at this college. I am the founder of my team and I am trying to get into contact with this university. Does anybody know the email or the owners name of this college? If anyone knows the name and email or phone number of the owner of the college, that would help me out alot. You can either email me personally (eve.lisa_burton@yahoo.com) or my teams and I’s email (paranormies@yahoo.com). If you would like to look at our website it is http://www.wix.com/lburton1995/femalephantomsquad. Copy and paste that link into your browser.
