      That’s true
      And the police were known to run teens and so called witches away from one of their graves at sunset cemetery in Halloween

    1:40 pm I went to school here. It is definitely haunted. In the auditorium on walls you would see bloodstain and then it would disappear. And you would see a black silhouette in the shape of a woman. You get use to after seeing it so often.

    I’ve researched the story in great depth and there are many errors in this presentation. Here are the corrections in order of occurrence.
    Sidney Shelton had the matching walls and Montgomery Hall steps built in 1915 after he took possession of the property and converted into his home and a hotel.
    Montgomery Hall was razed in 1933, the high school was built in 1934 - it’s on a cornerstone.
    Bessie Spindle was in fact a teacher at Montgomery Female College.
    Caroline Martin is not buried at Sunset Cemetery. Caroline is buried two rows up from Ocey in Mount Hope Cemetery in Hastings-on-Hudson New York, it’s in their records.
    Soule Female College was not a university.
    Hugh died of encephalitis a couple days after the fall.
    Robert didn’t die of a mysterious disease; he had long been plagued by respiratory problems because of a bullet in one of his lungs. He went to NY to see a specialist where he died in a hotel.
    Caroline bought Soule for $4000 plus assuming the rest of the debt which were the terms under which she sold it to Virginia. There was no other woman.
    Mary didn’t work at Price’s College for Young Ladies, she worked at Ward’s Seminary in Nashville, before that she worked at a school in Clarksville, TN.
    Mary had three sons, not two. John Wardlaw, always called “Wardlaw”, Fletcher Wardlaw and Albert Charles.
    Fletcher didn’t teach at Soule, he was never a teacher.
    I’ve never seen typewriting as part of the curriculum at Soule during the Wardlaw administration.
    The problem at Montgomery Female College wasn’t lack of tuition, the most successful year ever was 1907.
    John didn’t fall off the train going to Christiansburg, he fell off the train near Roanoke while traveling with Virginia and Albert from Christiansburg to Richmond and was in St Andrews Hospital in Lynchburg.
    Virginia didn’t stay with the Hancocks after Caroline left. They left at the same time, but, Virginia was staying across the street at the Hotel Roanoke. Where is the record of Caroline calling the Hancocks at all hours of the night? The Hancocks never said anything about that to newspaper reporters.
    When the sisters left Christiansburg, one of the places they lived was in a house in Flatlands which is south of Flatbush, I have a photo of a house on that corner of the intersention where they lived and was was taken at the time of the trial, it may or may not be the exact house.
    There is no record of the sisters repeatedly dosing Ocey with morphine, that’s conjecture.
    “They” didn’t move into the East Orange house, only Virginia and Ocey lived there while the others lived in Cheslea on West 22nd Street.
    Virginia didn’t say she saw Ocey the morning of the death, she said she had not seen her since yesterday.
    The suicide note was pinned to the clothes, it didn’t fall out.
    Fletcher didn’t have a price on his head and was not working at a logging camp. He was working as a dishwasher at The New Murray Hotel in St Catherine’s Ontario. The sisters knew he was there because Caroline had even visited him.
    Fletcher didn’t take Mary to California. She moved to Reno with Albert and eventually to Los Altos, California and then to Piedmont, California next to Oakland.
    On the contrary, Virginia DID go quietly with brother Rev. Albert Wardlaw and sister Bessie by her side. She never made public statements after her incarcertaion.

      I have read an insane amount of college pdf files I find online, most come from Virginia tech. I use findagrave.com and archived newspapers a lot too.

      I looked it up, looks like a place that definitely could be haunted

  • @puffchick4197

    I went there in the 8th grade
    I grew up in christiansburg and Blacksburg
    I never saw or heard anything at the school
    I think it’s all BS even when it comes to the hauntings I remember reading the haunting stories in the new river valley section of the Roanoke times

    The name is pronounced O-see-anna, not O-shay-anna. They called her Ocey, pronounced O-see.
