Finished having coffee with Mr. Eastman? Great! Let's do some studying.
Drive, bike, or if you're really into fitness, walk your way to the other side of downtown to check out one of Rocheser' greatest draws- the U of R. Go Yellowjackets!
The University is famous for it's beautiful campus, which also happens to contain our next haunted space- the Rush Rheese Library.
Built in 1929, the library's creation began with tragedy when construction worker Peter Nicosia fell to his death on site. There are multiple accounts of Peter Nicosia' ghost wandering the library, asking students directions and even demanding money for his construction contract. Students and staff have also report feeling unexpected cold spots in the library, hearing a voice, and seeing Peter Nicosia looking around the library before vanishing into thin air.
Another supernatural occurance of note- the Rush Rheese Library, though renovated and updated every few years, still houses it's original 1930 elevator. While it runs smoothly, sometimes it can be said the elevator runs TOO WELL and moves by itself. Going up?
