Stony Brook University - Southampton Campus - Southampton NY Haunted Place

This campus dates back to 1712 and features a three-story windmill that stands as one of Long Island's oldest. Relocated in 1890 from Southampton Town, it served as a landmark for seafaring ships, before standing at its present location, as part of the Claflin Estate. The windmill was also once used as a former cottage and housed guests like Tennessee Williams, who reportedly created one of his plays during his stay there.

According to stories, the owner's daughter had a playroom inside the windmill, and she fell down the steep set of stairs, dying from a broken neck. Her spirit is said to linger the area and there have been reports of her face being seen from the windows.
