Silver City, New Mexico Ghost Tales I was a R. A at a girls dorm in Silver City. A few of my residents worked in the museum next to the dorm. They said that they could hear several presences throughout the day. There was a little boy who would run around and play with a little rubber ball upstairs. They would also hear a man walking around throughout the building. They new this because the footsteps were heavy and some people felt like there was something looking down on them. Downstairs was the buggy room. There was an old horse-drawn buggy in the middle of the room. All the doors in the building have little sensors for locks on the doors. My residents said that they were constantly changing out the batteries because even though no one would visit the museum that day, something was setting it off. It makes a small click when it goes off. They said they always heard it clicking throughout the day. I heard it whenever I would visit them. Once they tried to spend the night. The noises stated above were incredibly loud and very frequent. They felt like they       were being watched and followed the entire time they were in there. The footsteps of the boy and man were always behind them. They went down to the buggy room. They didn't feel safe at all, but continued to go in anyway. The four of them sat in each corner of the buggy room without saying a word and try to meditate. Only a couple minutes into the session,   they all felt something ''evil'' (as they described it) and utter dominance over them. Without a word, they all got up and left the building. Also it's rumored that there is a tunnel that links the two buildings (museum and dorm) that was built during WWII. The girls dorm is definitely haunted. Supposedly there was a freshman staying in the dorm that was very lonely and sad. She committed suicide in a room at the end of the hall on the first floor (It's a tri-level so first floor feels like the basement). We've had residents complain about someone playing around with television sets, lights, and throwing objects across the rooms. Some people have felt like they were being watched. Others will wake up in the middle of the night with a shadowy looking figure standing over them. Sensors on the doors go off by themselves, creeks and faint screams are heard. Once I was grabbing my laundry from the dryer downstairs and I heard a faint scream run by my ear and the lights shut off while I was in the middle of the room. Another time I was taking a shower in the community restrooms late one night and I heard the door open but no footsteps or shuffles. Then the curtain to my stall opened but no one was there.
