Crowdsource: We Want To Hear Your Spooky Penn State Stories

With history dating all the way back to the 1800s, Penn State has had plenty of time to develop an urban legend or two.

With century-old hidden tunnel systems lining the campus’s underground and buildings, we began to wonder if anyone has encountered something sinister in their time here, especially during the eeriest time of year.

Have you ever had a spooky, unexplainable event of your own happen on campus or downtown? Maybe you saw something no one else did, or you heard the ghost of Betsy Aardsma in the stacks late at night. Whatever it was, we want to hear about it.
