What happened when a fire burned down almost the whole school in 1879? What building is the most haunted on campus? Who haunts Washington Hall? Why do people believe Father Sorin haunts the Main Building and the South Dining Hall? What sensations do students claim to feel from paranormal activity? Is Notre Dame haunted?
This week’s listener mail is the rest of the letter from a listener. This time we learn about her smell-lucination of her grandmother’s perfume. Have a spooky story or question of your own (or someone you know)? Send your story or question to info@ghostlypodcast.com or leave a voicemail at 630-448-2138 and we might read or share it on the podcast. You could be on a future episode of Ghostly!
Pat explores the history of the University of Notre Dame. Originally belonging to the Miami tribe and then later the Potawatomi tribe, the land was eventually taken over by French Catholic priests looking to start a school. He also talks about the fire in 1879 and how it rebuilt. And we can’t talk about Notre Dame without talking Fighting Irish football and it’s two most famous players, George “Gipper” Gipp and Rudy.
Rebecca and Pat debate if the University of Notre Dame is haunted. While many believe that the Gipper haunts Washington Hall, there are other candidates as well. Several people have also claimed to see Father Sorin’s ghost in several buildings over the years. What do you believe?
