Augusta University (formerly Augusta State University) has various rumored hauntings, including a female spirit named Emily Galt in Bellevue Hall and a Confederate soldier's ghost seen at the Summerville campus near Walker Cemetery. Paranormal activity reportedly includes unexplained footsteps and doors, and the Benet House is said to be haunted by a gray flash and a rocking chair. Bellevue Hall: This building is a focus of paranormal activity, where the spirit of Emily Galt is said to reside. Galt allegedly etched her name in a window after her fiancé was killed in the Civil War and may have died from heartbreak or suicide. Reports include sounds of arguing and footsteps in empty hallways. Benet House: This building, which houses the university's admissions office, is rumored to be haunted by a gray flash and an invisible presence that rocks a chair. A Confederate soldier's spirit, also known as the "apple pie ghost," is said to open a non-existent oven here. Walker Cemetery: Located near the Summerville campus, this cemetery is the site where the ghost of a Confederate soldier in a gray coat and yellow sash has been reportedly seen walking among the graves. Visitors and staff have reported hearing sounds like arguing, footsteps, and a rocking chair moving on its own. Doors have been observed opening and closing without a cause, and televisions and phones have reportedly functioned on their own. A gray flash and figures in a gray coat have been reported in the Benet House and the cemetery, respectively.
