The James T. Callow Folklore Archive

IN REDECORATING ONE OF THE BUILDINGS OF THE CONVENT
IN SYLVANIA, THE CHAPEL WAS CONVERTED TO A
COMMUNITY ROOM. ONE EVENING AS ONE OF THE SISTERS
SAT ALONE STUDYING, SHE HEARD FEET SHUFFLING ALONG
THE WALL BUT, LOOKING, SHE SAW NO ONE. THIS
HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES TO VARIOUS SISTERS. IT
SEEMS THAT THE POOR SOULS COME BACK TO SAY THE
STATIONS OF THE CROSS, WHICH WERE ONCE ERECTED
ALONG THE WALLS.

Submitter comment: A GROUP OF US WERE TOLD ABOUT THIS BY THE SISTER WHO
HAD HEARD THE FOOTSTEPS.
