True Story
“Two girls were very good friends. They promised each other that which ever of them would die first would come back to tell what kind the next world was.”
Two girls were very good friends. They promised each other that which ever of them would die first would come back to tell what kind the next world was. The dead girl came back and promised to meet another night. The living girl went and told the priest.
The priest told her to make a ring around with Holy water and if she was good she would come inside the ring and if she was bad she would not come.
The dead girl came and bared her teeth at her , and went away in fire. - Collector
