I know, right? Eeek! I was glad I was never in the dorm all by myself after that. One of the deans at the college started collecting campus ghost stories after two girls living in a different dorm showed up in his office demanding to see the file on their room. He explained that they didn't keep files. Turns out the girls had a ghost. So every year at Halloween he'll tell ghost stories to students. Most of the ghosts are friendly - old professors who do stuff like make sure the drama students don't fall off the stage. The first female professor has a dorm named after her, which used to be girls-only. Now it's co-ed, so she's supposed to patrol the halls rather grumpily. There's also a ghost that plays the school's pipe organs. If I remember correctly we even have a ghost dog who used to be a campus pet.
The ghost in the two girls' room seems to have been the (only) student who died on campus. There's apparently a cave and some heating tunnels on that part of campus, and they're now closed because this boy died in them. So one night one of the girls was sitting on her bed doing homework when one of her friends opened the door, looked in, then shut the door. She asked her friend about it, and the friend said, "I didn't want to interrupt - there was a boy in a red hat sitting on the end of your bed." So of course, she freaked out, since she'd been alone. Same room: one of the girls woke up late one night and saw a boy in a red hat just sitting in the corner.
