Waco Schoolhouse Haunt is located inside of an old schoolhouse built in 1934, but has been closed for the last 30 years. In 2013 the doors of the old school were pried open to unveil what time and locals didn’t want anyone to see. One of the locals spoke of the accidental death of the custodian and a gruesome incident with one of the students who was horribly disfigured from the conveyer system they used to bring coal into the building for the furnaces. Since the school has been closed there have been many sightings of what appears to be a shadow of a man standing in the windows of one of the old classrooms. One of the local neighborhood children said he has seen a little girl walking the hallways and has heard a child’s voice coming from downstairs. Is it the ghost of the deceased custodian and the child who was nearly decapitated many years ago? Nobody knows for sure, but if you need an education in “Old School Fear”, this is the place.
