Why is the Old Argonne Grade School Haunted?

*Back in the early 1950s, a janitor hung himself in the upstairs storage room.-SL

Alleged Paranormal Activity

*When the school closed in the early 1990s, kids would go up on a dare to write their name on the wall (in the storage room), and they would see a man plain as day hanging from the rafter.-SL
*If they did not see this man (presumably the janitor) they would hear sounds of the rose squeaking on the boards and the janitor moaning.-SL
*
Even after the school has been torn down, people still see lights on the property.-SL
