I used to work on the maintenance staff at the Scranton Cultural Center at The Masonic Temple in downtown Scranton. I have had my name called out to me while alone on the fourth floor and also heard doors opening and closing and faint conversations off in the distance. my brother who worked with me saw a figure sitting in the theater where we had just cleaned. a lot of my coworkers there who had been there longer have seen and heard a lot of interesting things. There is also a ghost of a woman who walks along the ballroom balcony.

Robin and I were just at the SCC for a mini tour with the Lackawanna Heritage Valley Authority (May 10). We spoke to the Facilities Director (John, I believe) and he did say that a person had been seen on many occasions in the library ( starting in 1933) though there have not been any recent reports. He also told us of a young girl in Victorian dress that is seen in the theater box balcony, who is spotted to this day.
These are probably the very same ones of which you speak. It is always great to get independent confirmation.
John had mentioned that touring the facility is possible and Robin and I acquired contact information from him. We hope to have a SPRI field trip there this summer.
Tom.

If there is an investigation, I would love to come along and not only help out and observe with the investigation, but i could be of help in getting around. I know of some secret areas and there is also a tunnel rumored to be somewhere in the sub basement leading to Lackawanna College. Due to the removal of asbestos, a HAZMAT team had the sub basement blocked off and my brother and i didnt have the chance to explore down there when we were employed there. Please keep us updated about the possibility of an investigation.

Wow, that is interesting. I would love to tour there. I was even thinking about having my wedding reception there.

Speaking of Lackawanna College! That is the creepiest place at night. I work there, I know first hand what happens because I work the night shift and the things you hear make you shake your head. I will discuss it further at the meeting if anyone is insterested.

Jenn,
Let me know if you know someone at Lackawanna College that we could talk to about it's past, and maybe we can even put together a seminar for the students and check out the building at the same time.
Tom.

BTW- I had my wedding reception there....It was beautiful...it was halloween of '98..... Yes, Tom was telling me that you had it there at the last meeting. I just looked at it today. It's beautiful in there. That's sad no one repsonded to your calls. I would love to investigate it. The lady said she thinks "the phantom of the opera" type of thing haunts it. edited to add: She mentioned that on her own. I don't know if she was serious, but she sounded serious.

I am so curious about Lackawanna College. I would love to investigate the campus. I would like to finally see some hard evidence to what is creeping me out every night.
