Update February 2012 one of our readers writes:
"Just came across this site as I was just all of a sudden curious what has been put up on the web about the Old Huron Hall at the University of Windsor. I can share my experiences with it as I lived there for 3 years.
I was in 228 for the first year I was there and 225 for the 2nd. Both rooms had activity, but 228 was by far the hotbed of it all. I have seen the white woman twice in the room near the bathroom, my roomate also had seen her there. The next year, I was now in 225 and my girlfriend best friend was in 228. I have had pots fly off the shelf in 225, but in 228 we have seen a wisp in the air floating by. Her friend who doesn't believe in anything freaked out one time as we always talked about the woman. She saw something that she had no explanation for and wouldn't elaborate on it, but she was very freaked out.
The final year, I was in 226 I think, and my girlfriend now lived in 228. We experienced one evening of that dread feeling and something being in the room with us. The temperature in the room just plummeted to almost freezing temps and we just knew something else was in there, it was that feeling. Not sure how long the temp drop lasted for, but it was quite the experience.
So just a few more details on this as I had done a lot of research on the ghost activity in the dorm. We actually had a few people that got together and discussed this years after about our experiences as I was the main contact for the history of the place. I had researched the entire past and all the old newspaper articles about the history. There has never been any confirmed documentation about any murders happening in the building, but there had been a few stabbings and altercations when it used to be a hotel, but none which were fatal. When it was the lumber mill, I don't believe I recall any work accidents there either that were reported in the news paper. It seems that whatever it was haunting the location wasn't attached to the building itself, but the land.
Anyways just some more info I thought I would add if I hadn't already added this back in the 90's. I knew I had contacted several people and places about the Huron Hall ghost. I know from my old dorm friends there, that 222 supposedly was a very active room, but when talking to people that lived in 222 I believe they said they only did a seance in there once and it got a bit freaky but that was it. I still have contact with one of the guys that lived in that room, so maybe I'll ask him about it someday.
Either way, it's a shame the place is now gone and rubble. I check it out when I go back there to visit friends and I think it's still just a pile of dirt right now on the location. I'm sure I'm forgetting about other instances over the course of 3 years there, but those were the ones that stuck out. 228 being the most active, 225 having some minor things (namely the pots flying off the shelf), and 225 which I don't think had anything happen..."
