Drew University Makes Insider List Of Haunted Campuses

MADISON, NJ - The Morris County campus of Drew University has made the Insider list of a dozen schools that may have a paranormal problem.

There are several tales detailed in a video on the school website, including that of a dark-haired woman who supposedly haunts the attic of Hoyt Hall and steals small items from students.

The report also makes mention of Roxanna Mead-Drew the late wife of the institution's founder wandering Mead Hall causing drops in temperatures, slamming doors and leaving footsteps in her wake.

Mead Hall is a hotspot of activity, the report noted with maintenance workers and security personnel reporting hearing the sounds of the organ playing itself from the Chapel and seeing an apparition in the basement.

Drew University professors seem to be split on the campus phenomenon with some claiming there is no evidence of hauntings, while others say they have borne witnesses to the spectres. You can see their comments in the video below.
