Baker College of Owosso in Owosso, Michigan was first established in 1945 as the Owosso Bible College. Its 70-acre campus consists of a mixture of newer classrooms and buildings, as well as several older historic buildings that were later incorporated as part of Baker College. Hoddy Residence Hall and Kurtz Residence Hall were once the site of the Owosso Sanitarium, which attempted to treat men and women with a variety of ailments using magnetized mineral water from a nearby spring. In 1855 a series of tunnels were constructed beneath the sanitarium to brew beer and wine, with steam from the underground machinery being used to heat a series of healing mineral baths above. The Owosso Sanitarium continued to attract men and women seeking treatment for illnesses such as arthritis, rheumatism, and tuberculosis until the nearby spring was depleted in 1910. Now students residing in Hoddy Hall and Kurtz Hall report experiencing a variety of unexplained paranormal activity, such as witnessing apparitions and shadow figures, or hearing the sounds of disembodied voices, footsteps, and laughter. Many residents also report experiencing frequent nightmares, and being scratched or otherwise physically attacked by an unseen entity while sleeping. Those exploring the underground tunnels beneath the two dormitories also claim to experience sudden cold spots, unexplained feelings of fear, and feelings of being watched by an unseen entity. One popular urban legend told by students claims that Baker College is haunted by the spirit of a female student who committed suicide, however these stories are widely disregarded as being fictional due to a lack of historic information about the alleged incident. Another rumor is that Baker College of Owosso was constructed over the site of an ancient Native American burial ground, which many believe may be the reason for some of the alleged paranormal phenomena students claim to experience.

The Oakwood Avenue Bridge in Owosso was constructed in the late 1800's by the Wrought Iron Bridge Company, and is one of only three Whipple Truss style bridges still standing in the state of Michigan. It was converted into a walking bridge in the 1970's and is rumored to be haunted by the spirit of a young man and woman who committed suicide together in the early 1900's. Their two apparitions are often seen plunging from the Oakwood Avenue Bridge into the Shiawassee River below, allegedly forced to relive their tragic deaths over and over again for eternity. Many pedestrians walking along Oakwood Avenue at night have also reported hearing the sounds of disembodied screams and feeling sudden, unexplained cold spots. The Oakwood Avenue Bridge is also sometimes referred to as the Pink Bridge due to its original salmon-pink coloring, however in 2008 and 2009 the bridge underwent a series of renovations and is now painted a dark, navy blue color.

It is said to be haunted by a number of spirits, including that of a man named Jack Vincent who was stabbed to death on April 13, 1975. Those walking at night often report witnessing apparitions, and hearing the disembodied sounds of voices, footsteps, and whispers, as well as other strange noises.
