Ghost Stories on the Gallaudet Campus
Posted by fookembug on October 23, 2007
I know that there is lot of ghost stories on the Gallaudet campus. You can add if I miss something here or correct me if I am wrong.
Tower Clock – There was reportedly a ghost in the Tower Clock.
College Hall – When the freshman student walk through the coffin door, they will never graduate from Gallaudet. Also, another incident that the ghost stalked, the man that hanged himself on third floor.
President’s black dog – The ghost black dog wandered loose on Gallaudet campus.
President’s house – Some people said that the house had lot of noises like the shutters rattled, door slammed, alarm blared and the chair rocked itself.
Cogswell Hall dorm- Room 105 is where the ghost lived in. The students, who slept there, left the school because they witnessed the ghost with their own eyes. The cold/warm air in specific area (for example, the cold air is around the room and the warm air is in the middle of the room, NO A.C. on or the windows open), the clock changed itself and the desk light on the wall moved around. The room is not available for students to sleep in. I happened to live in room 107, next to ghost room. I never forget that moment. It sent me chill and I still do remember the incident. It was 15 years ago. (About a week ago, for two days in a row, I had a bad dream about the incident that I witnessed myself with my roommate, Jia.)
Benson Hall dorm- The room closed. (I am not sure what the room number is but it is on eight floor) The guy jumped out from the window on eight floor and hit the rail on the ground. You can see the bend on the rail, next to the computer lab room. The room haunted.
Edward Miner Gallaudet statue- if you visit this statue at exactly midnight, under the full moon, the face will turn into a skull.

I quote from my favorite haunted list of place. This website named GU one of haunted places.
Kendall Green – Gallaudet – Kendall Demonstration Elementary School – In the girls bathroom, there was a ghost around and watching the girls. The ghost is around the bathroom because four girls who were saying bloody Mary for millions time and several days. Somehow, a ghost was mad at 4 girls. The ghost looked like more than 100 years old. The ghost was looked for 4 girls. The four girls decided to withdrawn that school to saved themselves. If you wanted to enter this bathroom, you will see the awful image of the ghost.
Kendall Green – MSSD – MSSD is located in the back part of the campus of Gallaudet University on a hill facing Rhode Island Ave — MSSD was founded in 1969 and Gallaudet was founded in 1857. The students at MSSD would feel hoof beats going through the campus possibly was the route taken during the Revolution War going towards Pennsylvania. Also, a ghost of a girl who had apparently committed suicide was seen in 1 of the girls’ dorms and seeing apparitions of another girl who apparently would wander in the girls’ dorm and has been seen sitting in a corner somewhere in the dorm.

I was walking with 2 of my friends, Van Wey and pokipokla. We were walking on the street where you can see the president’s house. I spotted the pitch black animal with fox/dog figure. I pointed Van Wey to that creature. It was sitting under the light pole but the fur was still pitch black and can’t even see other color on the fur. After I shout to that creature to make sure it does exists. It respond with sprint out into the shadow which it perfectly blend. We couldn’t any longer. we were sure that it is related to the ghost story about the president’s black dog.
