WASHINGTON, PA (KDKA) “It’s a haunted tale that has been passed down for decades – The ghost of a Confederate soldier is believed to be living on the third floor of the president’s house at Washington and Jefferson College,” reports KDKA.

“The cats live on the second floor, but they still see the ghost occasionally and you’ll see their heads all turn at once and they see something we don’t see,” President Tori Haring-Smith said.

“There’s a coat rack with metal hangers and we’ve been in the house in the summer when there [was] no wind, no doors open, no windows open and suddenly the metal hangers will go,” she added.

“He has also gotten into the gas fireplaces,” explains Haring-Smith. “So we’ll turn them on, he turns them off. We turn them on, he turns them off.”

“The president says she’s never seen the ghost herself but even as recently as this past Sunday, he’s made his presence known,” reports KDKA.

“In my study, the remote control to the television was next to me so no cat could’ve stepped on it. … Suddenly, the television went on behind me, was on for about five seconds and then it went to snow for about 20 [seconds] and then it turned off completely,” Haring-Smith said.
