Is This South Carolina School Haunted

One school in West Columbia, South Carolina, is rumored to be haunted by a former employee. It is believed that the ghost that roams the halls is George Pair, who was the first principal at the school from 1958 until his death in 1962, the same year he passed away. Students and staff have reported experiencing unexplained activity, including doors closing, banging against lockers, and footsteps. The incidents were more common at night, when students and staff attended school events.
