Ghost: Broomstreet Ghosts
They appear from hidden corners in an impromptu
fashion, like bubbles appearing anywhere
in boiling tea. They are all in white, making
mourning sounds that can put Nightmare on Elmstreet
Series to shame.
They always come out at ten
in the night. Everyone in Broomstreet closes their
windows, doors and anything that won't make
their houses air-tight. Fathers, mothers,
children, friends, and acquaintances hold each
other's hands behind the sofas, under the beds,
under dinner tables....and wait.
The strange thing with the ghosts
is that they are interested with money,
rather than haunting souls. One ghost
once was spotted robbing Broomstreet
Bank. "Call the exorcists!" the witnesses
shouted.
The ghosts also get wounded. One had a broken
nose when it stalked Mr. Nogood. It hit a wall
as it ran away, after it saw Mr. Nogood's
shotgun.... "How can ghosts be afraid of dying?!"
the senior citizen asked.
Yes, there has been many strange incidences
of haunting in places with lots of money, or
people with lots of money.
The fact and bottomline is that one ghost
resembled Todd Mills, who had escaped
from prison three months back....
