Last Night's Haunting

I used to live in a haunted house. I would voices, feel footsteps on my bed, cold circles on the floor, and even breath on my face. I wrote about it here on Gather in a story called, Elizabeth. My ghost even had a name.

So, last night about 4:00 am, I heard voices again. Strong and clear. I heard a man and a woman talking, loudly. I woke my poor husband. I lay terrified. I asked him if he heard the voices, too, because when the haunting started at first he wouldn't hear the voices.

He jumped up, and said, "You left the T.V. on!"

Whew!

I once lived in a haunted house, until I was divorced. One time a frying pan whacked me over the head while I was sleeping, after coming home late one night from the racetrack.

I won't ever go back there. And I'm not just saying that because of the restraining order. I really mean it.

Been there. Not divorced, but no one in my family will go near that house.

I used to hear voices, too. I would wake up to screams of "stop snoring!"

Unlike most men, I tried everything before settling on divorce. I remember my wife slapping me and telling me she wasn't fat when I tried to talk to her about excorcising.
