Can you share more about the University of Santo Tomas horror stories?

One horror story is about the old buildings. There are rumors of strange noises at night. Some students claim to have heard eerie moans and creaking sounds, as if the building itself is haunted. It gives them the chills when they have to stay late for study sessions.

Sure. There's a story about a particular lecture hall. During a midnight rehearsal for a play, the actors heard whispers that seemed to be coming from all directions. They couldn't make out what was being said, but it was very unsettling. The room was supposed to be empty, but it felt like there were unseen spectators.

It's also possible that there are allegorical characters. These could be figures that represent abstract concepts such as Truth or Virtue. Their presence in the Time Stories would be to help illustrate Santo Tomas de Aquino's philosophical and theological concepts in a more vivid way.

One of the main themes could be moral and ethical teachings. Santo Tomas de Aquino was a philosopher who often delved into such matters.

The academic pressure was not in a healthy way. It was more about conforming to a set pattern rather than exploring knowledge. Professors had to adhere to the university's conservative views, and this limited the quality of education. For instance, scientific theories that conflicted with the university's religious beliefs might not be taught properly, which is a huge drawback for students aiming for a well - rounded education.

Well, another horror story involves a large tree on campus. It's an old, gnarled tree. Some students have reported seeing a figure in white standing near the tree at dusk. It's not clear who or what it could be. Some think it might be a lost spirit. Also, there are stories of students getting lost in a maze - like part of the campus that seems to change its layout at night. They end up walking in circles and feeling panicked until they finally find their way out, but they always have a sense that something was leading them astray.

In another homecoming event, there was a costume contest. A group of friends dressed up as different historical figures from the university's past. But they got the facts all wrong. For example, they thought one dean was a famous athlete when in fact he was a renowned scholar. They still won the 'Most Entertaining' award because of their misinformation and the chaos they created on stage.

Sure. There's a story where a university's abandoned theater is haunted. People say that if you go there after dark, you can hear the faint sound of music and voices as if a performance is still going on. It was said that an actress died on stage many years ago and her presence still remains.

Well, the campus grounds also have their share of spooky stories. There's a particular spot near an old oak tree where people claim to feel a strange energy. Some say they've seen a woman in old - fashioned clothing sitting under the tree. It's not clear who she might be, but it could be someone with a connection to the university's past, perhaps a former student or faculty member's relative.

Sure. There's a story about a girl who died tragically on campus long ago. Her ghost is said to haunt the gardens. People sometimes smell a faint floral scent when there's no actual flowers in bloom nearby, which they believe is her presence. She might have loved the gardens when she was alive.
