Roy High School

Utah · United States · School

Two figures are described in the auditorium at this Utah school. Nobody knows how Mabel died, and the other is known only by her purple hat.

The auditorium at Roy High School in Utah is associated with two figures.

The first is a girl called Mabel. Nobody has ever established how she died. She keeps to the backstage area and the winding stairs, and what is attributed to her is mischief: lights switched off and on, props moved, props that disappear, and a general insistence on being noticed.

The second is a woman in a purple hat, described on the stage itself, some distance from the wood pile.

School auditoriums are the single most reported kind of space in American school folklore, for reasons that have more to do with lighting rigs, trap doors and long empty hours than with anything else.

What is unusual here is that neither figure has been given a story. Generations of pupils have described them without anyone inventing a death to explain them.
