A young boy was home alone one evening. He was watching TV when suddenly all the lights went out. He grabbed a flashlight and started to check the fuse box. As he was walking down the basement stairs, he heard a soft whisper saying his name. He froze in fear. Then he felt a cold hand touch his shoulder. He screamed and bolted back upstairs, not daring to look back.
There was a man who liked to take late - night walks in the cemetery. One night, as he was walking, he noticed a figure in a white dress sitting on a gravestone.
