- There was once a man crossing a field one dark night and he saw a big white thing with two long horns. He got afraid of it and (and) began to run. The ghost was following him. Every few yards he would run he would look back and shout "God is good". Then he would run another few yards and shout, "the devil is not bad either". At the end of the chase the ghost turned out to be a goat.
