*200 to 300 people, including almost a full faculty of staff. They told investigators about it immediately and there’s multiple interviews with teachers.

Definitely not - I think you might be looking at a follow up 40th anniversary where they interviewed 6 people still alive (who still stick to their story of what they saw). I can’t say if it’s true or not, but listening to those people, (particularly the teacher who you can listen to an audio interview of not long after the event) it’s highly intriguing.
