Wells College has an abundance of ghost stories. Among the spirits said to live on campus are Morgan Hall’s Max, a security guard who died in a fire; a female student in Zabriskie Hall who was stabbed to death by a professor who stole her research; vengeful Mrs. Wells, who haunts Pettibone House looking for her husband’s mistress with a knife; several ghosts in the Main House; and a ghost who melted all the bicycles together in the Glen Park Mansion basement. Many more stories, and other versions of these tales, are told by the Wells students.

I am a student at wells, I was on the second floor using the bathroom. I was alone in there no one else. The water turned on by itself and I heard someone cough. After I was done I came out to wash my hands and the water is still running, I turned it off and went to the other sink and the water turned back on again!!! I ran out the bathroom and went to another bathroom to wash my hands! wells is for sure haunted!!
