Howard – Payne Hall

CMU Campus Fayette, Mo

Some years ago a female student, walking home on a snowy night, was killed by a brick that fell from the building. Her apparition can reportedly be seen on snowy nights still trying to make her way back to her dorm. The ghost of a former student named Mary Kirk is believed to haunt her old dorm room. Mary disappeared from campus in 1926 and was never found. Shortly after her disappearance her boarded up room was found ransacked and muddy foot prints were found on the floor leading from outside the boarded door to the enterer of the room. The 5th floor of the building is believed to be haunted by the ghost of a female student who committed suicide as well as a possibly inhuman entity. There are reports of many strange occurrences including water being turned on and off.
