There are many things that go bump in the night.
At UTA, it’s a little girl.
In July of 2000, something strange happened to journalism alumnus Jason Hoskins. At the time, he was The Shorthorn editor in chief and had stayed late to finish his duties.
He had positioned himself in front of the two security monitors, which covered the back and front entrance of the large office space. He said he was weary but noticed something at the rear entrance monitor.
“I chalked it up to the fact that I was just tired,” Hoskins said.
It wasn’t something that alarmed him, but he didn’t think on it for very long until later that summer, when it happened again.
“I was in the same spot, and I thought I saw a little girl at the front door,” he said.
He said she looked like an 8-year-old character from “Little House on the Prairie.”
Hoskins said he still had work to do and opted to just move away from the monitors so that he wouldn’t have to deal with anything unexplainable.
While in the bathroom, he said he heard the office’s front door slam. But Hoskins was the only one in the office and had been for some time.
“I saw something just out of the corner of my eye walk by the main desk,” he said. “At that point, I decided to just get up and leave.”
