The Haunting

Student Dorms - Officer School attendees often report an eerie presence in building 1433, which was built closest to the river of all the dorm facilities. Often, young lieutenants will wake up to a bed soaked through with water. They’ll see shadows move down the hallway, (mostly on the second floor) and also many report having vivid and horrifying nightmares. Some will continue to scream even if prompted to wake up. A burnt electrical smell also pervades the 2nd floor on occasion, as well as haywire electrical appliances. The spirits are attributed to Confederate soldiers who drowned in the Alabama River while trying to cross into the city of Montgomery. The ghosts also show a predilection for students who are from northern or western states (states which are not known for their southern accent).
