Carolina ghost stories

Posted Oct 31, 2019
Memorial Hall: In what can be a dark place full of muted noises, Evan the ghost has been seen by many people. Named by student production workers two decades ago, Evan wears 1940s style clothes and a fedora. He’s usually seen from across the auditorium, fixing his icy stare on people as if trying to get their attention. Prior to Evan, a “clanking” ghost was heard. (UNC.edu)
