Thinking it was a fellow coworker, he turned only to be confronted by a humanoid figure with no facial features passing through the hall. While the worker could see the figure moving, it did not appear to be walking. As the worker went to find the figure, he realized there was no one else in the basement.

The infamous McCray ghost is known to play the organ located in the building. One sighting of this ghost was in 1979 when two students were waiting in the building to be picked up after a marching band trip. These students heard the organ playing on the 3rd floor and when they went up to investigate, the music stopped and no lights were turned on. These students did not see anyone else in the building that night.
