Witch Mountain
Ok, I do not believe in ghosts, or the dead coming back from the grave. Most people enjoy a good ghost story, but what happened to me cannot be explained. This is a real true story. I was about 18 at the time, I moved out of my parent's...
The Moaning

The Vision
All her life my grandma seemed to have the gift, if you would like to call it that, to see events, which had not yet occurred, either through dreams, visions or a feeling she would get about something.
In February of 1948 my grandfather was working as a contract lineman...
The Witch In My Room II
It's been several months since I wrote the story "The witch in my room" back in October, and the story hasn't ended and probably never will. My life can't go back to the way it was because of the evil that has stepped into it.
I said last time...
