| Northern Michigan University | Halverson Hall room 304 - It has been rumored that a ghost has been sited in room 304 of Halverson hall at Northern Michigan University. It was believed that the person hung themselves from their loft. |
| Northern Michigan University | Music Building - The ghost reported in the Forest Roberts theater elevator can not be because the theater has no elevator! The music building does, however, and it is where a janitor named Perry had a heart attack in the 60's. The elevator moves up and down on its own at all hours. It has even been recorded at midnight and later when nobody else has been near the building but music students practicing. |
| Northern Michigan University | The Forrest Roberts Theatre - is inhabited by an old janitor (believed to be named Perry) who died of a heart attack in the elevator at the adjoining building, Thomas Fine Arts Building. He has been seen by dozens of people in various parts of this theatre. |
| Northern Michigan University | Thomas Fine Arts Building - The Forrest Roberts theater and Thomas fine arts building are connected by a service corridor. The elevator moves it's self from floor to floor empty as if being called. It only does this at night. It has also stopped for several seconds while people were using it in the day. It is believed that Perry haunts both buildings, and possibly even the McClintoc building, which is also connected. |
| Old Children's Orphanage | Residents near the building say that children were beaten and killed in the orphanage. One story was that a little girl went outside to play during a winter blizzard and got pneumonia. She later died from that and her body was displayed in the front lobby as an example of what happens when the kids play outside. People have seen figures inside the house and heard mysterious sounds of children from inside. The 6 story orphanage still stands today with half the windows and all the doors boarded... |
| Old City Orphanage | there is an old orphanage on fisher street that is haunted, it is said that children were beaten and killed in this orphanage also a nun once beat a boy so badly that he died and a funeral service was held for him in the basement only for the children and faculty. The nun did not want to be punished for killing the boy so she had him buried in the nearby cemetery, if you go into the basement late at night you can see the boy laying in the coffin and a green light around it. |
| Shamrock Pub | The Shamrock, on Front Street, is reported haunted. The building was built in the late 1800's, and was originally a furniture store doubling as a funeral home. It was common for furniture makers to build caskets years ago. The building was converted to a bar years later (I think the 1930's). Most of the hauntings are late at night, after the bar has closed. |
