Tillman Hall, originally known as Main Building, is a historic academic building located on the campus of Winthrop University at Rock Hill, South Carolina. It was built in 1894, and is a three-story, red brick building in the Richardsonian Romanesque style. The building includes a basement and attic, has a combination gabled and hipped roof configuration, projecting bay windows, and features a conical-roofed clock tower with open belfry. In 1962, Main Building was renamed Tillman Hall for Governor and Democratic U.S. Senator Benjamin Tillman. [2][3] Tillman Hall's Auditorium has hosted concerts by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons in 1970, Jars of Clay in 1997, Florida's metal band Trivium in 2005, and Vienna Teng in 2008. The 2008 direct-to-video horror film Asylum was filmed outside of and inside Tillman Hall. The ending of the 1999 horror film Carrie 2 was also filmed at Tillman Hall.
