Curious, some of them went to investigate. As they got closer, they felt a cold wind and a sense of dread.

Yes, I've heard of a story where a drunk man on Saint Patrick's Day wandered into an old churchyard. As he walked among the graves, he felt a cold hand grab his ankle.

One possible story could be about a lost soul wandering the streets at midnight on All Saints Day. The air is cold and foggy, and every step the soul takes seems to echo in the empty streets. It comes across an old, abandoned church. As it enters, the candles inside flicker ominously. Suddenly, the pews start to shake, and the figure sees the apparitions of the saints, but they are twisted and menacing, their eyes glowing red, ready to pass a terrifying judgment on the lost soul.

A garbage man once had an encounter where he noticed a trash bag that seemed to be moving on its own. At first, he thought it was just the wind or a small animal trapped inside.

He managed to break free and ran away, leaving the bag behind.
Another tale involves a haunted altar. A family set up an altar for the Day of the Dead, but they made a mistake in the placement of the offerings. As a result, an angry spirit was attracted. Every night, the family would hear strange noises coming from the altar area. The candles on the altar would flicker wildly even when there was no wind. They had to seek the help of a shaman to correct their mistake and appease the spirit.
