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....
