  1. The Ghost

    Share Share Post
    One night a man was walking to a visiting house and he saw a white man who was dead standing before him. He knew the man by his features. He came near the man who was going visiting. But he did not speak. When the ghost went away the man could hear him laughing as he flew away up in the air.
