Haunted Seminary: Acadia University Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

juniorwoodchuckhuey: It's time to archive this one. It has had a good long run. Many maintenance logs over the years. None of the locations this cache has occupied over the years seem like good hides any more. They've all been muggled many times. Any re-hide would be essentially a new cache, so I am retiring it to make room.

Cache on!

Geocache Description:

Seminary House, Acadia University, Wolfville, NS

Cache is a nano. Bring a pencil, because there isn't one in the cache. The cache isn't right beside the building, so no need to snoop there.

THE LEGEND:

Acadia Ladies' Seminary - The old Acadia Ladies Seminary was originally a Baptist finishing school for girls. It's now a co-ed residence of Acadia University, called Seminary House. Since the 1960s or earlier, the residents tell a story of a Baptist girl in the late 1800s who hanged herself off "the well", a large opening with a banister in the second floor under the skylight. She apparently killed herself because she was pregnant, and her presence continues to haunt the building. Some people report strange noises, mild poltergeist activity, and odd appearances in the back stairwell.
