Ketchikan, Alaska is known for its breathtaking natural beauty and rich Alaska Native culture. But beneath the surface, lies a mystery that has been puzzling the residents for decades. Ketchikan High School, or Kayhi as it is affectionately called, is not just any ordinary school. It is home to a ghostly presence, that has been haunting the halls for over 70 years.
In 1946, a student at Ketchikan High School fell from the catwalk above the stage in the theater. Despite numerous attempts to explain the strange noises and sightings, the ghost has never been laid to rest. This mysterious figure has been dubbed “Boochie” by the students, and his ghostly presence has become a legend in Ketchikan.
Many theories have emerged about how Boochie met his untimely end. Some believe that he was pushed off the catwalk in a tragic accident, while others believe that he was driven to suicide by heartbreak or academic pressure. But the truth about what really happened to Boochie remains a mystery.
Despite the school undergoing renovations and remodels, Boochie’s ghostly presence has only grown stronger. He can be seen from the stage, and his haunting cries and strange noises can still be heard in the theater to this day.
Ketchikan residents continue to search for the truth behind Boochie’s ghostly presence, but one thing is for certain – his spirit will forever linger in the halls of Ketchikan High School.
