Summary
 In tonight's dead letter, we're back in Athens, Ohio, with our listener Evan, who was a sophomore engineering student at Ohio University around 2015. He was thrilled to get room 328 in Wilson Hall, directly below room 428, the "haunted room" we asked about at the end of Dead Letter Office episode 52. He thought bunking below that haunted room would be fun. Maybe it was, but there was a price to pay.
