Ursuline Convent Haunted?

Before we left for the field trip earlier today, I was planning to make a blog post about one of the places we were visiting today. While browsing online, I came across a very interesting but spooky article about the Old Ursuline Convent being haunted. To be honest, I was too terrified to read it and decided to put it aside until the field trip was over. I have heard rumors of the place being haunted but not in specific details. Even though it does not contain any significant materials relating to the religious aspect, I decided to post this out of curiosity. A few of us were curious to see what was on the second and third floor of the convent. The article briefly includes a tale about the upper floors.

Old Ursuline Convent has been the center of most tales and legends due to its history and title as one of the oldest buildings in the South. In addition, the convent has served as a orphanage and a hospital in the past. The tales of the convent being haunted have been circulated throughout the years mainly by supernatural enthusiasts. Even so, it is still interesting to read despite the mindset. You can read more about it here: one & two.
