  1. A Story.
    There is a man living in a house, and near our house. There is a curse on this place that was very unlucky to the house. There is a white horse and a man riding him seen there a lot of times. This was a person who died from a wound in his chest when he was robbed, and ever since he was seen there he cries in this house every night, and the man had to leave the place. This house is a very unlucky one.
