The Business Man
Hi! My name is Delaney and this is a true story. Once me and my neighbor were playing in my house. Just then we heard footsteps down in the basement. We were very scared and told my family.
We tried to close our eyes and imagine what the noise was. I said that in my mind I saw a man with a case walking in the dark room. I forget what she imagined it was.
Anyhow, I still don't know what it was to this very day. We even might just have been dreaming, but sometimes in the early fall you can still hear FOOTSTEPS!

The Man Discovers the Haunted House
One day a man saw a haunted house and knocked on the door. Nobody answered and the door just came open. The man walked inside the haunted house. He looked around. The lights didn’t work, then all of the sudden he heard a noise, "…don’t roll the log…" over and over again. It sounded like the sound was getting louder and louder, so he ran to the bathroom in the haunted house as fast as he could.
The sound was soooo loud, it sounded like it was coming from the toilet. The man lifted up the toilet seat and heard the sound "…don’t roll the log…" over and over again. It turned out it was ants on a piece of poop saying, "…don’t roll the log…" so the ants eventually got flushed down the toilet, so they didn’t have to roll the log to die.

The Two Brothers
A long time ago in a village near Oviedo, two brothers decided to enter a tumbledown house. Their grandfather had told them that a bad woman had lived in that house and she had died in odd circumstances.
The next residents had died in a short time too, so nobody wanted to live there.
The two kids were curious and entered in the house, but they didn't tell anyone because no one had entered since the last dead owners.
They explored the house. There were many paintings, old furniture and the house was very dirty: with dust and spider webs. They thought that it was boring and not interesting because there was nothing.
Next they decided to leave the place but suddenly they heard a strange voice that called them, so they started to run. That night they didn't return home.

Moonlight Shadow
There was a distant marsh where nobody dared to go. It had a difficult access and was deep and dark, but that was not the reason why people didn't go there.
They feared the legend. The legend said that when the full moon reflected on the water, the people who looked at it fixedly became mad and they killed people, even their friends.
Many people have disappeared and nothing more was heard of them. There is only one person who survived and is locked up in a mental hospital near there. They say that there are legends, but I know it is true, because I am that person!
