"Maybe, someday, the diligent staff of the National Register will end the controversy. However, until such a thing happens, the heated debate about exactly where it was in the ancient cemetery of the city will continue. Several candidates aspiring to the nomination, as the basements of local new North Regional University of the Republic, or the Plaza Artigas the wasteland adjacent to the Lyceum of New Salto. However, persistent versions say that the cemetery was on land on which it was built Osimani Polytechnic Institute and Llerena, and works from several years ago, the Liceo N º 1 iPollo. This is why, as I have known, whereby once they start to fade on the horizon the last rays of sun, this place is the scene of a large number of mysterious and paranormal events.
In fact, the repertoire of these events is so wide and varied detail, unless instructed, could annoy any reader. Simply note which, among other things, speaks of benches and desks that move alone, the boards that dawn with bizarre drawings and captions in foreign languages, of paper mysteriously anonymous hands scattered in a place just sanitized; of persistently ringing phones in classrooms without such a device, inside closed doors with shutters that, when opened, give way to empty rooms, of unexplained broken glass and even the unusual disappearance of records, tests and official documents. Sometimes shadows can also guess hanging, designed by brokers, and human figures roaming then fade away, through walls and walls, as magic. Naturally, the most frequent witnesses of these wonders are both students and teachers, authorities and the cleaning staff of high school.
However, the most interesting anecdotes about the mysterious events were reported Liceo iPollo me first hand by a police officer and father of a good friend who has had to spend long nights alone in the building guard serving as calm. This man, I say, whose accuracy is gospel for me, I reported that there views are manifested in every color imaginable when there is a faucet is opened alone in the bathroom, is a tank powered by air, when not a tank, there are incredible gusts of cold, even if it is in midsummer and around the trees are still and lulled by the stifling heat when there is a stream of air is a haze white closed invades the atmosphere when there is a fog, lights and flashes are perceived in the corridors, and when it is neither this nor any such wonders, can sometimes detect a very strong smell of sulfur emanating from the most unusual: the laboratory, auditorium, staff room, the galponcito gym, library. Also see, "he says, hinting inhuman faces in the background mirrors.
According to my witness, there are so many police and watchmen who could corroborate these apparitions that for a long time, and painfully frightened, none of them are encouraged to guard remaining inside the high school, but invariably perform surveillance round the outer perimeters.
In this story, as it is narrated by Moraes Diego writer, and his legend, add other stories: Stories
Veronica and Monica, two students from the night shift at the high school, say that once, when out at midnight, felt strings and popping noises in the laboratory (where the institute accumulates more legends).
Approaching look, they discovered that the furniture store where the instruments were opened, and a window appeared to open despite having been closed by their own students minutes before.
The following week, the girls returned to hear the sounds of chains and saw a shadow approaching. The students never returned to high school and say they will never forget what happened there.
A former official of iPollo, who asked that his identity not be revealed, he worked there in '85. Remember the buzz about the supposed spirits and discuss a case that shocked. At that time was an official night watchman, who had to stay through January while the high school was closed. When teachers were returned in February, the official said the horrors that had happened: in the night screaming, wailing, strange things. That partner committed suicide a few days into his leave, and the other teachers remember with shame not to have given more weight to their stories or contain it.
Another of the many stories that came from a former student, who asked specifically not mentioned his name. "With regard to high school I heard that story and also some more recent," he says. "In chemistry labs, a few years ago, a teacher came out scared after trying to take a liquid in a test tube, the jet split in two and fell on the sides, not let in a drop in the tube. "
" When I went to high school, "he continues," was spoken of a ghost by name. I have stayed in some cases a night at the University, behind the high school, and also hear footsteps and strange noises at night. Now only police outside the high school, on the opposite wing to the laboratories. "
