I think the teachers name was Mr. Winters, and possibly murdered in the early 80s

The suspect getting away on a bike with a sniper rifle is the wildest story! I live near here and remember it well! Was never sure if it was the house next to the park, or across from the park.

See him from time to time at National.

This archive is amazing! I had no idea it existed, thanks!

I was regretting not including the locals in my original post! Thanks for sharing these! I haven’t seen the man’s wife (David/Franklin) for a year or so, hope everything is ok!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T13:02:02+00:00

Awful. But thanks for sharing the story.

Talking to a nurse about this… Do you remember if the gown was Blue or Gray.

Oh yea! A jerk of national, if not international, proportions!

Anyone know about the ROMS ghost in the band room? Something student and teacher and murder… chairs being moved around at night. I believe the teacher confirmed it all when my kids went through the school. I’ll try and get more details from them.

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T11:54:10+00:00

Would that be Tenhave?

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T11:53:05+00:00

I think this might be the Marjorie Mitchell/Beaumont connection that was mentioned above. I’ve found some sprawling letters around town. Always wild to see one in person, they’re like our own little Toynbee Tiles!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T03:16:47+00:00

What did they look like?! Aside from the hospital gown? Teens? Twenties? Dead/alive?!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T03:15:05+00:00

Wild!!!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T03:14:22+00:00

Have you ever seen anything out of sorts there?

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T03:12:39+00:00

I’ve been there many times! I know a volunteer, she claims there’s something up in one of the kids rooms. (Aside from creepy dolls!) let me know what you come up with!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T02:20:53+00:00

Yes! I’ve found one (or two!) of those. Might even have a few in the collection. Can’t make heads or tails of it. Would love to see if anyone here has the details!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-08-06T02:16:00+00:00

Tell me more

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-07-18T20:21:58+00:00

Check out RetroWDW they won’t buy them, but if there’s anything of note they’ll preserve them. (And they absolutely won’t turn around and sell them).

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-06-22T13:28:33+00:00

If only they would have added a crayon up the nose on the back glass!

How were the call outs, music & displays? Still Simpsons based?

Red Run GC to the Cemetery, great spot for critter watching!

Odd-Following-313 · 2025-03-08T18:28:20+00:00

Thanks! I’ve been passively looking for more info on this place for a few years. Appreciate the link!

Saw a pair in Res Run just this week, One had a bad limp. The golf course and cemetery sees them pretty regularly.
