Nine creepy campus spots you didn’t know existed

As lovely as it is this time of year is, it can be easy to get caught up in the beauty of campus. But what about the eerie parts of campus? After all, there are plenty of creepy crevices students pass by everyday without knowing it. Here are some spots that may not make it onto the typical prospective student’s campus tour.
  1. Condemned cabin at the Bluffton University Nature Preserve (including a rather creepy outhouse)
  2. The underground tunnel between Shoker Science Center and Berky Hall
  3. The fourth-floor of Berky Hall
  4. College Hall (Ok, you know it exists, but it’s got creepy part you may have yet to explore.)
  5. The Lower Stacks in the library. *
  6. Ropp Hall (check out this story of allegedly haunted spots on campus)
  7. The room with only one key (again, read the story about allegedly haunted campus spots)
  8. The old boiler room of Ropp Hall
  9. The tiny doors on the first floor of Ropp Annex

 

*Editor’s note: per a comment from Carrie Phillips, university archivist, we have updated No. 5 so that it is identified as the Lower Stacks. See her comment below for more details. The Witmarsum staff apologize for the error and are grateful for the correction.
