Sometimes, these stories start from the local history around the playground. Maybe there was an old cemetery nearby that was moved to build the playground. People might think that the spirits of those who were buried there are not happy about their resting place being disturbed and start to haunt the playground. This could lead to stories about ghosts roaming the playground at night, looking for a new place to rest or seeking revenge for their disrupted graves.
One popular playground ghost story is about the little girl who haunts the old swings. Legend has it that she died in an accident on the swings long ago and now at night, you can sometimes see the swings moving on their own as if she's still playing.
Often, working ghost stories start from unexplained phenomena. For instance, if something strange happens in a workplace repeatedly, like objects moving on their own or strange noises. Workers then start to speculate and over time, these speculations turn into ghost stories.
Often, they start with someone setting the mood, like saying 'Did you guys know there's something really strange about this camp?'.
No. I think most of these scary playground stories are just made - up to spook kids. It's probably just their imaginations running wild when they're in a somewhat spooky - looking playground.
They usually begin with something out of the ordinary that happened at the camp. It could be a camper who had a really bad fall and was found unconscious in a strange place. This event then gets exaggerated. People start to say that there was something unnatural about it, like a ghostly presence that pushed the camper. Or it could start from an old item found at the camp, like an old diary with some cryptic entries. Campers start speculating and creating a ghost story around it.
You can start with a creepy setting, like an old abandoned house in the middle of the night.
Adult supervision is crucial. An adult should be present to watch over the children while they play. The adult can also teach children the proper way to use the playground equipment. For example, showing them how to hold on tightly when on the swings or not to run in front of someone on the slide.
First, you need to reach a certain level in the game. Then, look for specific NPCs or quest markers related to ghost stories.
Begin with a strange sound or an unexplained event. Say something like 'There was a creaking noise coming from the attic that no one could explain. It was a sound that sent shivers down the spines of everyone in the old house.'
You can start with a description of a creepy place. For instance, 'There was an old, dilapidated mansion on the outskirts of town. It stood alone, surrounded by overgrown weeds and a rusty fence.'
