Mary Frances Hall

Iowa · USA · Church

The founder is reported on the top floor of the hall that carries her name, and in the chapel. She crossed from Ireland and started a school with no money.

Mary Frances Hall at Clarke in Dubuque, Iowa was built in 1924, and what students report on the top floor and in the chapel is attributed to the woman the building is named for.

Mary Frances Clarke came from Dublin in 1833 with four companions and no money, was shipwrecked on the way, and founded a teaching order that went on to run schools across the American west. She opened her first school in Philadelphia within weeks of landing.

Students describe footsteps in the corridor with nobody in it, the sense of being watched, and a shrouded figure.

A founder reported in the building named after her, on the campus she made possible, is the most fitting version of this there is, and the students who report her do not appear to find it frightening.

The hall is in use as student housing.
