Ghost Stories

Just in time for Halloween, does anyone have a good ghost story?

Ever hear "Tailypo" ?

I have a story but it's not about ghosts.

Maggie had been blind since she was 10 but she never let it hold her back , she learned to cope w/ the situation and lead a fairly normal if routine life. She learned brail and got a seeing eye dog as a companion even taking classes at the local university.

Maggie had memorized the layout of her small apartment and could navigate it w/o her dog or assistance of any kind.

One day as Maggie was leaving for class Max her dog barked to alert her , It was a campus cop who told her to be careful and stay w/ groups because a suspected rapist/serial killer had escaped police custody the night before and was at large in the area. Maggie assured him that she'd be fine w/ Max and went on her way. She returned that night and as she went inside her apartment Max licked her hand and ran towards the kitchen , it had been raining and his fur was wet and smelly.

Maggie heard Max whine and thought he must be hungry so she put his food out and called him ... no reply ... she called him again then felt his damp fur and warm tongue on her leg. "Eat up Max" she pat his head and went to shower and put her nightgown on.

She heard Max pant as she dryed off and slipped into the gown , then she went to bed. She had her arm dangling over the bed and felt Max lick it , "Ok you can sleep beside me." she felt Max climb beside her then lick her again ....

Maggie had missed her morning and afternoon classes , her friends and teachers were worried. The police knocked her door down and searched her apartment , they found Maggie on her bed naked and throat cut ear to ear , her dog Max was found under her bed w/ his throat cut as well and written in blood on the wall behind her headboard "People can lick too"

Cool story Billy. A little creapy, but still cool.

One story that I like. (As it was told to me.)

During the filming of the movie Gettysburg, after shooting the Little Round Top sequence, one of the reenactors climbed to the top of the hill to have a look over that section of the battlefield. As he sat there a fog, from Plum Run, started to creep its way up the hill. A tired, slightly dishelved Yankee came walking up out of the fog and sat next to the man. The two sat there in silence for some time. The reenactor looked the other guy over and was silently impressed with his uniform. It was 100% correct, right button's, 20th Maine emblem on his hat, correct Corps patch and Division color. At last the spoke Yankee , "It was a tough fight today."

The reenactor replied, "Yeah it was." And then added, "It liiks like they'll hit us again tomottow."

The Yankee said, "Yes, I believe the will." After a short pause he asked, "How are you fixed for cartridges?"

The reenactor said, "I'm tunning low."

The Yankee reached out his hand, "Here, take these. And make them count." Then he said, "I have to get back." Then he got up and walked back down the hill. The reenactor looked over the bundle that the man had just given him. The attention to the slightest detail was just amazing. He stuffed them into his haversack.

When he got home he took the bundle out again for a closer look. It had the correct arsenal lable and the whole nine yards. He untied the string and saw the 20 cartridges, with 20 caps rolled up in paper like how it was supposed to be. Then he noticed that all of the cartridges had a lead ball in them. He became convinced that either he had met the most authentic reenactor ever or he had an encounter with a ghost.
