Name	Description
Cascade	They say at night if you go up in the rocks you can see fire and people around it. You can hear howling and screaming by the falls. They have reported a shadow figure on the swings.
Elyria high school	It is said that the tunnels under the school have ghosts. There is also activity in the Washington building. The really big hot spot is the auditorium.
Westwood Jr. High School	Night shift custodians have claimed to see a tall figure of a well dressed black man wandering the halls in the building. They have also heard locker doors slamming shut, voices of children, chairs being pushed off the tables, weird knocking sounds and the feeling of being watched. Strangely enough on rare occasions money was found in places after they were cleaned. The highest places of activities are in the learning center(library), locker rooms and the auditorium.
