Email Body The main body of the email, including all replied and forwarded text and headers Hi Megan, Your group archival research project sounds really interesting. I haven't taught a 200-level horror class for a few years, but in those classes, my students share ghost stories. For me, the big takeaway about Mason campus ghost stories is that the newest buildings often turn out to be the most haunted . . . so maybe the trauma lies not in the building but in the location. I'm not sure about Rogers Hall specifically. But I *do* know that the haunted campus buildings my students told stories about were dorms. As for Indian burial grounds, I'm skeptical. You've probably already gotten a sense of this from your research, but the spooky Indian burial ground is a white idea, not an Indigenous one. It's mostly about colonialism (white people thinking that they're haunted by Indians and Indian land after stealing said land from them). So I would push back against the idea that an Indian burial ground is behind a Rogers Hall haunting. It could be a white burial ground, or maybe something weird happened in a house that stood on that spot, or something else. Hope this helps. Thanks for writing and see you in the spring!
