AOX digs it!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/05/09
This is going to be Alpha Theta Chi's 2nd tour of the Willard Library. We loved it last year & we're going to love it this year. This place is legit, it has been on TAPS & a couple other ghost shows. We did smell some nasty perfume (later they told us that the "grey lady" wears a lilac perfume) other than that everything was historical & beautiful. Amazing architecture & a great place to go. Its FREE & a good short road trip for a Sorority, Fraternity, or any type of organization/group! All in all we LOVED it & the staff were all very educated on the history of the building & hauntings.
 
 
 
 
 
Beautiful

We visited the library due to it's "haunting" reputation, but found it to be a beautiful place. I am happy they have kept it around for years. Very peaceful atmosphere, also.

Haunted Library scares no one.
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/18/05
This library is fairly small and is known for being Haunted by an old woman. One website even has a 24 live webcam to capture images of her ghost! I visited here and felt unwelcome, however...and instead of seeing a ghost, I was just bored.
