Capture a Pet Ghost

Who you gonna call?
The desk dragon’s caged ghosts have escaped and are running amok in the Law Library. Catch one and you can bring it home with you – as your own pet ghost!
From October 1st through October 24th, tickets for pet ghosts will be hidden throughout the library on weekdays. Clues to the ticket’s final resting place will be exclusively posted on the Law Library’s social media pages (Facebook, Instagram,  and X). You’ll be able to see the antics these spooky spirits are getting up to amongst our collection! Our guide page will give you detailed directions with examples as well as access to a library map and reading call number instructions. Be the first to solve the clue by searching the library catalog, locate the ticket, and come to the circulation desk during business hours (Monday-Friday, 8am-5pm) to exchange the ticket for your new pet. 
Every glow-in-the-dark ghost haunts its own little moss-filled habitat. All pet ghosts have their own tombstones; inscriptions include name, death date, and cause of death. They’re quite boo-tiful. 
Please do not ask student employees to solve clues for you. That would be a grave misconduct.
Due to ghost law, you can only have one pet ghost. 
Happy Halloween hunting!
