Charlie Grimille 1983

Charlie Grimille 1983

My mom told me this story just a couple years ago. She went to Beatrice High School and I went to Tri-County (just outside of Beatrice). In 1983 a boy named Charlie Grimille died at Beatrice High School while performing on stage. My mom said he hung himself in front of the whole audience, but I guess it was an accident. For such a small town it was a big and scary deal, but not big enough to make national headline news and I guess it was sort of forgotten. After he died, locals thought the theater was haunted. They heard noises, and there was a superstition about saying Charlie's name in the theater. My mom said she heard that in 1992 there was a substitute drama teacher who came for a couple days. They said he got sick in the theater and left early. Like four days later, his ex-wife hung herself. Weird.

But the really paranormal stuff didn't happen until just a few years ago. In 2008, there were 3 students who broke into the school at night. Why they did it is still not really known, but the next morning when police finally showed up, they were all found hung! I saw it in the Daily Sun myself and it was totally shocking, but when my mom told me the story of Charlie, I was incredibly freaked out. Most people say they committed suicide because the police didn't find any fingerprints or any evidence of an outside attacker. My opinion? The people of Beatrice were scared and tried to cover up the fact that something weird was going on in that school. Nobody talks about it there. Personally I am still confused, and I don't really believe in the supernatural, but I would be lying if I said I didn't think Charlie had anything to do with it. I pulled this picture from the Daily Sun issue on the story.

My experience NEW
by: Anonymous

I've never been to this school. I don't know where the movie was filmed, but as a film maker myself, I remember that the movie started as a project that spent a low amount of money to film a freay trailer and then Jason Blum jumped on it, so I think it is trying to retell the story of Charlie. I have no Idea how he died. All we were given in the movie is that he died other than the first scene showing him dying in that accident. It just says at the end,"In memory of Charlie Grimille". I get what they mean by "The school just isn't right anymore. I go to High School in Longmont Colorado and a student went into cardiac arrest on out school's stage. I remember people saying it happened around the time I was born (2003) and before that I was totally fine with acting on that stage, but after hearing about that death, it did feel weird and some of my classmates told me freaky stories about going under the stage and stuff so...

by: Amy

I live in Beatrice and have my entire life except while at college. I have lived here since 1969. My entire family has lived in this town since the late 1930's. THIS NEVER HAPPENED. PERIOD. Didn't happen in 1983, 1993, ever. And the new high school was built in 1998, clear across town. The old high school is now the middle school. No break-ins or hangings in 2008 at either school. The theater/auditorium at the middle school (where I went to high school) is NOT haunted. I was in theater and orchestra in the pit for plays. It's all a very good story, but that's all it is, a story. Believe me, you can find our town (thousands from around the country and even the world arrived here in August to watch the solar eclipse) and it is a very nice one for the most part. Every place has good and bad. But this didn't happen at all and I would like to set the record straight.

Well I finished watching The Gallows and all I can say about it is I think Charlie may have been bullied and when it came to him being hanged I think someone plotted it someone messed with the rope and it you know it must have been like some kind of freak accident in a way you know like it's interesting how he died but I don't think that Charlie necessarily it was hunting people per se I mean last night I watched only half of it and at the same time that the locker door open and then slams shut something in the other room fall out of one of the closets that I keep stuff in so I wouldn't be surprised if Charlie story is kind of true but I'm not the superstitious type you know if Charlie is real and he does actually go to that school or did you know before he died then I say burn the school to the ground cuz if it's on said like that if kids are literally being killed at that school because of something that happened years of the past you need to get rid of what happened like I thought school y'all need to Burn It To The Ground cuz that's going to be the only thing that stops him maybe and also any signs of the school get rid of it cuz I maybe maybe there's something that that's cool that's holding him there you know what they say Spirits bind themselves to stuff of life so they have something there be remembered by or something they can remember that's the only thing I can say if it's true and from what I seen last night it's a slight feeling in my gut telling me that he might be real so.

Sorry to break it to everyone who thinks this is true but its not. My mom went to school at the time this would of happened. It's a silly wise tale that they make up to scare kids. The high school that this happened at is now the middle school. I went there. It doesnt even have an auditorium. The only thing close is the community center across the street.

Ok might be true might not NEW
by: Kishana Daniel

So here is what I’ve dug up on what I am now referring to as "The Grimille Case." I managed to get some scans of the local Beatrice paper issues from October 31st, 1983 and October 30th, 2008 (not very easy to come by I might add). First off I’d like those reading this to remember that these are my opinions and findings based solely off the facts presented in the articles. These events did happen. The connection between them is however, unknown and not entirely understood.

What I do know is that (as explained in the article) Charlie Grimille was an avid thespian. He devoted much of his own time to the school’s drama club and assisted in dozens of productions throughout his high school years. I actually looked up his parents in Beatrice and gave them a call, but they didn’t want to talk to me. Even though I was only interested in his life before the accident and not so much the accident itself, I understand their hesitation. From what I gather from other sources, theater was Charlie’s life until he lost his life to it.

After hearing other accounts of strange happenings in the theater up until the 2008 deaths, I quickly came to believe that just because Charlie was dead, didn’t mean he ever left the theater. As stated in the 83′ issue Daily Sun, "the theater simply doesn’t feel right anymore." Well of course it doesn’t feel right anymore! Something terribly unfortunate happened to a great young man who didn’t have a chance to finish one of his last high school shows. There was unfinished business and as any thespian knows, the show must go on! Again this is my theory, but theatrical superstitions have been incredibly powerful. If Charlie Grimille was a true believer in such superstitions, then why shouldn’t he be able to finish what he started?

Which brings me to the 2008 killings; which I do believe were killings and not self-inflicted cries for attention as many believe. What compelled the students to break into a school which they knew was haunted, I am not sure. Perhaps they were simply looking for a good time? Or perhaps they wanted to see for themselves if the school’s theater was home to the accused spirits. Either way, it was a bad decision which cost them their lives. But what happened to them is fairly clear in my opinion. As I said, Charlie Grimille had unfinished business. Why then would Charlie take it out on these poor kids in such a gruesome way? There are several possibilities in my opinion. 1. They stepped over the boundaries of the school, and more importantly disrupted the sanctity of the theater. 2. Perhaps one or several of the students were relatives of those who had wronged Charlie while he was alive. 3. Charlie was intended to play the hangman and was denied that role. The night he died from what I hear, he was somewhat upset that the hangman role was not fulfilled in the show.

Did Charlie come back from the grave to complete his role of the hangman? It would appear so to me. This is a case that I think will remain unsolved because there is no "person" to point fingers at. It is 100% paranormal and bizarre. My prayers go out to the families of the deceased.

Times at BHS NEW
by: Anonymous

I think that Charlie Grimille was a good man before this all happened. Last year I went to that school and I moved to Illinois because I saw what happened and I didn't want to be involved in whatever is still happening. I was planning on seeing the play in 2015 but was anxious when people had told me not to go to it. When Charlie died, I wanted to know what happened. I'm the type of person that researches everything. I researched what had happened and it said he died in the play. When I read he got hung, I was so scared. I was so happy I had moved out of that school. Then when I heard about the incident with Reese, Ryan, Cassidy, and Pfiefer, I was destraught. I didn't know what to do. I texted my friend who still goes to that school and told her about it and she didn't believe me at first. Then when she went to get ready for the play she saw something and sent me a picture of it. I told her that it was true and she said yeah and she is deciding that next year and she is moving here. After that day, I could never think about anything different. When I think about that school, I can only think about Charlie. Charlie Charlie Charlie.

For all of you people saying your parents graduated in the 80's, please go educate yourself. This happened in '93 so obviously they weren't there to experience it. Because of that, they wouldn't know now anything about Charlie. Stop disrespecting the poor boy.

Just Respect NEW
by: Its True

Charlie`s death was no mistake because he was just an understudy and the person who was suppose to do the hanging scence didn't because he backed out. He was to afraid and Charlie took over. I believe someone must have didn't on purpose or it was an mistake. Charlie sprit still is out there and he still has hate. Who ever hates the dead good luck. I see sprits and it frightens me but I know never to disrespect the dead. I know Charlie didn't just die for no reason so I believe that Charlie`s has a meaning I love theater and Charlie did too. So respect the dead and sprits. I know I would think about Charlie everyday know so I remember to keep doing theater even means death R.I.P Charlie we will miss you and love you.

If you know any truth at all its the fact that even though it's outrageously ridiculous to believe this crap is that beatrice high school was rebuilt in 1999 on a completely different lot about 5 miles from the original high school. And if you really want you can probably find short movies of the guy pictured (Jesse Cross) and the director of the gallows (Chris Lofing) on youtube. One of those short movies was played at the theatres in beatrice. How do I know this, because 1 I've watched those short movies, 2 I have hung out with both of them and 3 I happened to graduate with both of them. And the best part is that I'm friends with them still.

Just not true..I was there !! NEW
by: Correna

I just want to say that I went to that school in 1983 through 1988. I never heard of anyone dying or being killed at Beatrice high school. I think I would have heard it since I was there across the street in junior high school in 1983. It makes a great story but it is impossible since it isn't even the same high school building. A tornado came through in the mid 90's and it took the junior high building. it was decided then that they would take the Jr High and put them in the high school building and in return build a huge school on the outskirts of Beatrice which was called Beatrice high school.So it isn't even the same land or building...The story of Charlie doesn't make sense to me..I was there and I never heard of any death. Sorry !!

I am currently going to Beatrice High School. My mother graduated in 86 from the high school downtown which is now the middle school, after they built the new high school east of town. My mom said that no kid died while in theater, there was no kid with this name. And I myself am definitely not scared to go into my school where none of this stuff happened. If YALL would like I could go through yearbooks from 83 and see if this kid is in there. I just hope YALL know that this was fabricated to make the movie.

Does it matter? NEW
by: thisguy

I just think it's a tragic thing if it did happen, and a very elaborate story if it didn't. Either way the people producing the new movie "The Gallows" has capitalized on this, and that is either smart or sick.

Stop the lies! NEW
by: Anonymous

I graduated in 1985 from BHS. This NEVER happened! There was never even anyone by that name there. I was a sophmore so I am damned sure I would have heard about it over some of you kooks who are claiming you heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend.............. Why the cover up if you are so sure this happened? You guys need to get a life and start discussing things that really happened instead of making things up to satisfy your own morbid sense of humor.

Shame on you! NEW

Nope.....sorry. This did NOT happen, and I think this is a cruel joke! Alot of people take their own lives, and this is a subject that hits home with me. I lost a family member by suicide, and it does not need to be glorified by you just so that you can get hype for your crazy made up movie that your trying to promote! Shame on you Haake/Lofing!

agree with below NEW
by: Anonymous

I was attending BHS in 1992 and there was no substitute teacher whose wife hung herself later on. I agree with below. The haunting would be at the OLD high school (now middle school) and would have nothing to do with the new high school. I lived there for 25 years and never heard a word of this. Total Bull. Entertaining bull, but still bull.

False NEW
by: Anonymous

If the death of Charlie Grimille took place in 1983 as you say, it would have been in the “Little Theatre” in the old High School on 5th street. The current High School and Hevelone Theatre were built many years later, several miles across town. How could the Hevelone Theatre at the new High School possibly be haunted by Charlie, when it didn’t even exist in 1983?

Obviously the "Not True at All" comment submitter is not from Nebraska. Just because you don't believe it doesn't mean it's not true! I am from North Platte and my cousin was from Odell. He told me this same story! It is complete fact. Whether or not the school is haunted is beyond me, but don't go making up that you're from Beatrice just to try and bust on these things!

Complete Truth!
by: Anonymous

I graduated from BHS in 1986 and I was at this show! I know it happened. I saw it! One of the most terrifying experiences of my life. I literally remember hearing Charlie snap his neck. I heard that it was broken into a few years back as well, though I had already moved out of Beatrice by then. I don't remember hearing about the recent deaths. Scary stuff.
