STORRS, Conn. -- Jim Mora lives in a stately old building set upon three acres on a hill above campus at the University of Connecticut.
He loves the location, the connection to the campus community and the six-minute walk of a commute. But there's a spooky soundtrack of doors that open at night, ominous shadows and unexplained noises.
"I'm convinced it's haunted," he said with a chuckle in his office recently.
There are colliding metaphors for Mora's haunted new haunt -- the task of bringing UConn football back from the dead and the 60-year-old Mora embracing the presence of new ghosts while trying to exorcise a few of his own.
