History:
This property is known as Cedar Creek's oldest surviving building, and it was built in 1875. Rumors say that it may have been used as a hospital and also as a house of ill repute at one time or another. It is known that it was used as a school, which closed down in the 1960's, and then became a hair salon, for a brief period of time, in the 1970's. It's current owner, Brandon S., who lives across from the old school house, now uses the building solely for storage.

One of the reports of paranormal activity include witnesses hearing babies cries in the basement of the building. The outside of the school has been reported to be very active as well.

It should be noted that the old schoolhouse is located on private property and permission is required to even enter the area surrounding the building. 'No Trespassing' signs are clearly posted at the entrance to the property.

The Old Schoolhouse - Main Floor

A strange mist was photographed in one of the rooms of the old school house. This was not visually noticed by anyone in the room. It only appeared in the photograph.

Note: It was not cold enough to produce steam from our breath, and nobody was smoking at the time this photo was taken. Also, the night was clear, and absolutely no mist or smoke were visually noticed in the surrounding area.
