Summary

This week, we dive into the dark hallways and shadowy corners of America's most haunted schools just as students head back to class. We explore two particularly eerie Schools: Pocatello High School in Idaho, where urban legends tell of a tragic suicide pact from the 1940s-50s that left one girl hanging from the top lockers (which were subsequently removed), and a ghostly wet child who supposedly drowned in the school's former pool. The campus is also known for phantom piano music echoing through an empty auditorium and unsettling sounds from the theater's changing rooms. Then we discuss the much more historically documented El Paso High School in Texas, built in 1916 over underground tunnels that once served as a morgue during the Spanish flu epidemic. With alleged deaths on campus, sealed-off rooms discovered years later, and even a mysterious figure appearing in a 1985 school photograph, this institution has a deeply troubling past. We also share two compelling anonymous stories from Reddit - one involving a Catholic preschool next to an 1800s cemetery where staff regularly encounter a spirit they call "Mary," and another from an Ohio behavioral school with such intense paranormal activity that it's now being demolished.
