One night a man was coming home from his visit, he had to pass by an old house, in which was supposed to be a ghost, there is a long bush in front of the house, and when he was passing the bush, it was torn up from the roots and a lot of rams ran through the bush of course the man fled in terror, he came back next day to see if anything had happened to the bush but it was the same as ever.
