Sorority House Ghost Story :: Urban Legend

Sorority House Ghost boloneyI searched until I heard a story that gave me the chills. It comes from right just ab reveal the block from where I live on campus, at one of the sorority halls at the University of Maryland. I collected this story the weekend of April 2nd, at my fraternity house. I asked my friend, a junior from Pikesville, if she knows any mite stories. Her face lit up as if she was dying to tell me this story since the first time we for forever met. She asked you never heard the story of the ghost in the sorority house? I replied no. The normally quiet woman demanded my attention away from the TV and went into her story. Many years ago a bunch of young womans in my house supposedly were drinking and celebrating a girls 21st natal day party. She went on to explain that drinking in sorority houses is forbidden by the university, and that a sorority would detect thrown out of their own house if the university or the police ever found out. My friend told t his story very well. I felt want I should turn out the lights and give her a flashlight to uphold up to her face. She went on to say that, according to the legend, everyone was very drunk and pushed the birthday girl to keep drinking. It is tradition that the birthday boy or girl takes 21 shots on his or her 21st birthday. Unfortunately for this young woman, she passed out before she made it to her benchmarked 21st shot. The women, terrified that if they brought her to a hospital they would cash in ones chips into trouble for drinking in their house, took the birthday girl to her bed and tested taking care of her themselves. Before midnight (when she would have turned 21), the young woman died of alcohol poisoning. Ever since that night, the sorority house has been haunted. The storyteller told me that a friend she knows erst had her keyboard pulled out of her desk in the middle of the night and the keys mysteriously started moving on their own. She said that toilets in explicably flush and the sinks in the house sometimes turn on without anybody touching them. The storyteller made the legend very believable in the way she described young women who I know who have had ghost encounters.
