Name	Description
Maryville Academy	Back in the 1930's when the Academy was used as a Catholic orphanage, there was evidence that the girls' dormitory was haunted by the spirit of a nun. There were sounds of footsteps, swishing of skirts, and the sound of the rosary beads clicking, but the nun herself was invisible.
Mrs. P & Me Restaurant	The shadow of a very tall man makes occasional appearances. Things go flying off the kitchen counters when no one is near by. The hangers on the coat rack have been known to spin and fly off the rod when there are only a few people around and its quiet. The books on a decorative book shelf like to sail off the shelves to the extent that books can no longer be kept there.
