J.C. Penney department store
: "Some workers have spotted dozens of rats at one time in the stockrooms and in the hallways. Numerous customer complaints about rats moving over their feet while shopping and in the fitting rooms have been logged."
Old Technical High School Building (now demolished)
: "The building that once was Technical High School has been demolished but, going back a few years ago the abandoned building used to be a popular hang out for school skipping teenagers from Commerce High. From those kids myself included reports of strange happenings have been reported. Large shadows/silhouettes of an abnormal human shape have been seen appearing in windows and changing floors in a blink of an eye. Inside the building noises like footsteps are heard in the attic from the third floor and bricks and other heavy obgects fly out of nowhere. This was more than an old building with creeks there is/was something very evil and most likely harmful inside this building. the grounds are still posted with no trespassing notices and police do take notice!"
Springfield College
: "Alumni Hall - James Naismith, inventor of basketball (which was invented at Springfield college), though deceased, has been spotted several times over the past years lurking around Alumni Hall. Most of the sightings have been reported on the third floor, room 374 where he once lived. Room 373 is the most dreaded room on the campus."
Van Horn Park
: "In the unused part of the park on the other side of Armory St. the water in the pond was much deeper. In the nineteen twenties two boys drown there. In the summer sometimes you can hear them laughing and splashing, even though nobody is in the water. Some say they have even seen the water move as though some one is swimming in it."
Western New England College
: "Berkshire Hall - Room 401, the students feel that when they are getting up they cannot, like some force is holding them down. Supposedly a former student had hung himself in the room upon hearing that his girlfriend had broken up with him. The students also wake up with sound of broken glass."
Western New England College
: "Windham Hall 133 Students often feel watched and the inability to get warm. The room has a constant chill around it."
