7 School Mysteries
Every good school has seven mysteries surrounding it! Sometimes there are eight mysteries, but that doesn't matter. They're still called the Seven Mysteries. Would the students dare to pit their wits against them?

Mystery #1 :: The Ghost of the Festival

 * Every school has a song that plays at the end of the day, after clubs are finished, to indicate all students must exit the premises and go home.  For example, say clubs are finished at 5:30 pm that day; at 6:00, the "Go Home" song will play over the intercom, and side or back doors will be locked by the staff.


 * However, it's said if you stay too long, past the time when all doors are locked, and you happen to be within the right room, you'll hear a different song played.  It sounds warped and scratchy, but kind of like a festival song.  You see, years and years ago, a student accidentally got locked within the school past closing time.  And that evening, there was a festival the student really wished to go to.  Unable to get out, she decided to jump out the window and land in a tree, thinking it would break her fall.  This was her mistake, for upon falling from that window, she was impaled on the tree branches and died, the music of that far-off festival echoing in her ears.


 * To this day, it is said if you hear that music, should you turn around and look out the window, you'll see her, dangling from the tree where she died.

Mystery #2 :: Hearts

 * This one happened in the shoe locker room by the front entrance.  There was a girl who truly admired and loved her senpai, and to confess, she started to write him anonymous love letters.  However, that senpai was fairly popular, and decided to publicize those letters, making fun of them throughout the school.


 * Pushed over the edge, the girl caught him alone the next day in the locker room.  There, she stabbed him to death and cut out his heart, putting it in her own locker before she committed suicide, stabbing her own heart.


 * It's said on quiet days, you can still hear the rhythmic beating of a heart pulse through the locker room.  Furthermore, since the heart she had stolen to put into her locker was taken from her and cremated, it's possible that girl's ghost still haunts that locker room, hoping one day to catch a new male unawares and take his heart as a replacement...
