Right i can remember there being a question about the origin of the 'grave yard shift' but cant seem to find it to post an answer it originated in the 18/19 centuary when the number of live buriels shot up.The solution to the problem was to tie a piece of string to the corpse and attach it to the bell and people would take it in turn to sit by it and wait to see if it rang.and whats your favorite ghost story?
I've got a couple of really short stories for you.
1) Two men are walking together. The first man says to the second man "Do you believe in ghosts?" and the second man says "No" and disappears.
2) The last man in the world is sitting in his house when the doorbell rings.
Not very scary, I know, but I hope you like them.
