College of Staten Island Willowbrook

The tale of Cropsey was a classic tale told to misbehaving children. The Staten Island boogeyman snatched and murdered young kids with an ice pick—or an ax or a hook hand, depending on who tells the tale. Head over to the College of Staten Island (CSI) for a glimpse at the old buildings that fed the legend. Before it was CSI, it was an institution for children with disabilities named Willowbrook State School until it was shut down in 1987. Real-life Cropsey, Andre Rand, was a custodian at Willowbrook responsible for the disappearance of five children.

Recognized as the country's oldest university, the University of Santo Tomas (UST) isn't only home to striving students but also century-old bewildering tales. There are alleged ghost encounters in the Benavides Park, College of Nursing, the main building, and many more. One of the scariest stories tells of a child who gets furious whenever the piano of the Conservatory of Music gets moved.
