Ghosts at the NJCU Campus

It has been five years since the New Jersey City University campus went through the traumatic tragedy and suicide of Professor Watson. After his wife's death he felt as though he didn't have much to live for.   Students remember his last few months at NJCU as a distant and cruel person, not like he was usually know the years prior. Prof. Watson was part of the Media Arts department and his classes were usually   the first choice for students. He had a vibrant personality but after the tragic death of his wife, Lydia in December of 2007 he began to worry faculty and students. The Professor would spend countless hours working in his office and many times who ever passed by would hear him yelling or playing loud music. Towards the end of the Spring 2008 semester Prof. Watson went absolutely crazy and committed suicide the night before graduation.

Now five years later the students and faculty of the Media Arts department have reported sightings of a white mist around the Fries building. Students that stay after hours to complete their projects during finals week have reported hearing loud music and yelling coming from what use to be the office of Professor Watson, but is now a storage room. One night students decided to go around the building taking pictures to see what they could get and this is what appeared.

Another student heard footsteps behind him one day and quickly turned and took this picture.

Prof. Watsons death was not the only tragedy that has happened on the NJCU campus. There was the death of Rodrigo Santos in '98 after being caught in the fire at the computer Lab. Maintenance tells stories of a white mists appearing and the rooms being messy as if someone was playing a tricks on them. No one feels threatened by these ghost's or sprits although they do scare many students they think its something exciting.
