By this title, y'all must be thinking that this is a dirty, sex story, right? Well, it would be a good assumption to make, but this ISN'T a dirty, sex story. It's a ghost story! :)
Meadowlands, the dorm that the chickas stayed in while they were at Dominican, was actually an old summer home for some of the well-to-do families in the mid-19th century. One of these families consisted of a husband and a wife, their son, and his nanny. This little boy was like any other little boy, with the exception that he had epileptic seizures. Since he was different, his parents made the attic of the house his bedroom, and his nanny stayed up there with him. One night when his parents were gone, Blue Boy's nanny was giving him a bath, and he started having a seizure. The nanny panicked, and she pushed him under the water. Within minutes, Blue Boy was dead, and when his nanny realized that she had killed him, she committed suicide, right there in the bathroom.
This story may seem a little farfetched to any of y'all that are skeptics, but the story is, indeed, true. The ghost of Blue Boy still haunts Meadowlands, too.......
Anyone who would walk into the building for the first time (or any other time after that) would instantly feel a strange presence around them. There were also weird occurrences in the dorm, too... Some people would say that they'd leave their computer on in their room, and their roommate wasn't in there while they were gone, but they'd come back...and their computer would be totally turned off, or unplugged, in a couple cases. In another case, a girl had had her stereo on, and it suddenly started turning all the way up, to the loudest volume, but no one was touching it; and there wasn't a remote for it. The thing about Blue Boy is that he would mess with someone's things, or would mess up their routine. He never really caused any harm, but just 'played tricks' on all of the residents of the dorm, or he would watch them. Of course the chickas had some run-ins with Blue Boy, too......
Kelly had a few little figurines sitting on top of her alarm clock. Every few days, they would be moved into different positions or turned around....and Kelly would always move them back to how she initially had them. Jennifer never went over there, and never touched the little figurines, but still this would always happen. There were also times when Kelly would leave her computer on while she was gone to class...and it would be off when she got back...and no, it didn't overheat, or be all ghetto like it does now....that didn't start happening until Kelly moved back home. Both of the girls would also sometimes wake up in the middle of the night and feel eyes on them, so they would look around to see if anyone was in there....and wouldn't see or hear anything.
In the building, the attic door was locked. Only the RA's had keys to it, and wouldn't go up there unless someone REALLY wanted to go up there and look around. It's been said that there are still blood stains on the floor of the bathroom, but they only show up at night........
Moral of the Story: There are such things as ghosts, but usually tales about them aren't true. Usually, it's when someone dies in their own house and decides to stay there long after they're dead. If you have run-ins with one, it could be scary or kinda cool, depending on the type of ghost it is.... You never know. :)
