Haunted South Main School

Haunted South Main School The old South Main School is now closed. We have paused all paranormal investigations Some surmise that a former school janitor is behind the activity.

South Main Elementary school in Bowling Green, Ohio was established in 1890. Thousands of students passed through its halls until declining enrollment forced it to shut down in 2005. It subsequently served as a common space for the arts community until it shut its doors for good in 2011. Rumors of odd occurrences circulated while the school was in operation up until its final closing. One of the

first teams to investigate the building, Fringe Paranormal, experienced phantom footsteps, doors closing of their own accord, knocks and shuffling, and EVP phenomena. The team investigated the old school several times, not imagining that some time down the road they would have the opportunity to share this paranormal hot spot with others across the country. In 2017 the team assigned its business arm, Fringe Associates LLC, this task. A portion of all funds raised is used for on going repair and restoration of the school

When the letter from the lawyer showed up informing us that South Main had been sold, one of the things we knew we HAD to do was have an open house for the community. From the pictures you sent us to keeping us informed of goings-on, you all have been super supportive of our venture these past five years. We are so glad so many of you could walk the halls (possibly) one last time. We wish we had more details of what will happen to ”our” beautiful school, but we don’t. 😕
If/when we do get updates, we’ll let you know, and we’ll continue to make posts on this page from time to time.
A lot of people asked what we’d be doing next. Well, we’ve been Fringe Paranormal since 2009! If you’re interested, you can check out our Facebook or website page for past and future endeavors.
Thank you again for your help and support!! ❤️

Disclaimer: While the written portion of the segment was on target, the news station made a lot of mistakes in their video spot. They mentioned Kelly's name and showed video of me. They misstated what is actually happening. The building is being sold. (They did not opt to not renew our lease). We did not do open houses every Sunday. We are not being forced to relocate. We just aren't hosting investigations at this location for the foreseeable future. Ugh. While we appreciate the attention from the media we wish they would get the facts straight.

Fringe Paranormal will host a free open house at the building Sunday from 5-8 p.m.
