I recently asked my grandmother about all the incidents she has experienced with ghosts and amazingly enough, she was full of stories. Most of them took place in her old house in Bountiful. She told me about a time she walked into the kitchen and a rag burst into flame. Another time she heard loud banging upstairs when she was the only one home. She rushed upstairs and found a hammer placed on the heater with no one around. She has many more stories that all have one thing in common and that is the house they occurred in. We call my grandmother's old house the "Bountiful House", and I was told that it used to be a hospital for people with Tuberculosis. My mother and her brothers and sisters lived there for a while and they all have amazing stories to tell. One time they found bones in the backyard and started playing with them, so my grandmother hurried to take the bones away from them. One of the craziest incidents happened to my aunt while they lived in the Bountiful House. One day my grandmother heard her daughter's shaky voice calling for her in fright. She ran to her daughter, but there was nothing there. Her daughter said there was a tall man in a black suit coming down the stairs. Only, he wasn't stepping on the stairs, he was silently gliding down the stairs. My grandmother asked what he looked like. She said she did not know because his features were too sharp to tell. There are many stories to tell but only if people want to listen. I want to know if other people believe in ghosts or if they have stories also? Do you?

ReplyDeleteI absolutley love these kind of stoies!
ReplyDeleteI have a suggestion. Part the paragraph. Part it from your grandmothers stories. Then use a few lines with the fact that it's the house. Then use your aunt.
ReplyDeleteIt makes it easier on us to read and to identify the change.
This is soooo cool. My old house was haunted by a ghost named Charlie.
I've always loved hearing ghost stories, even if I don't necessarily believe in them! Those stories are very spooky!!
ReplyDeleteThis kind of thing gives me chills. I love reading them, but I also have to ask myself if I want to or not. haha
ReplyDeleteIn my old house in Idaho me and my mom would always hear foot steps and people talking in our attic... I can't explain what it was besides a ghost, but I don't belive in ghosts though... So I don't know haha.
ReplyDeleteI hate reading about ghosts. It just creeps me out.
ReplyDeleteGhost stories are pretty creepy! I really can't remember if I've had any experiences with ghosts, however, I did have a dream in which i truly believe I was in the presence of an evil spirit which was unsettling
