Just in time for Halloween, current and former George School teachers have recounted spooky tales from their time in Tate House, an eighteenth-century building on campus that houses faculty and staff apartments. Tate House is said to be haunted by a Hessian soldier whose body was dissected and buried in the basement by a doctor during the Revolutionary War, over a century before George School’s 1893 founding. In an article entitled “A Hessian is Haunting,” James McGinnis of the Bucks County Courier Times reports that for a few George School teachers, the ghost story is more than a rumor. Woodworking and furniture design teacher Carter Sio ’76, language teacher Cheri Mellor, and former George School biology teacher Erin Sio each had a tale to tell.
