The factory was said to be haunted and many people in the area refused to set fott inside the factory grounds.

The other girls were scared at first, but eventually one of them agreed to do it just for fun so they could tell their friends at school about it. Two of the girls climbed over the fence and the other two girls waited outside for them. After about twenty minutes had passed, the two remaining girls started getting worried. Suddenly, they heard blood-curdling screams coming from inside the old factory. It sounded like their friends. Terrified, the two girls ran all the way home.

Halloween Tale – The Bus Driver

On a dark Halloween night in 2003, a bus driver was traveling down a deserted street, when he saw a beautiful young woman at the side of the road. He halted at the bus stop and she climbed on board. The woman took a seat at the back of the bus and stared straight ahead. When the bus driver looked in his mirror, he noticed that the woman was staring directly at him, never blinking. But when he looked back over his shoulder, the woman was sitting with her back to him. The driver began to get really creeped out. he couldn’t understand what was going on. Then, he came to the end of his route. It was the last stop and he pulled over and opened the doors of the bus. The woman didn’t get out. She just sat there, motionless, with her back to him. The driver walked towards the back of the bus and saw that the woman was covering her face with her hands. He tried talking to her, but she wouldn’t answer. He took hold of her arms and tried to make her show her face. The woman refused and struggled out of his grip. Finally, she spoke. “You will not like what you see”, and suddenly, she dropped her hands and turned. Her face was horribly disfigured. Lumps of flesh were falling off and her skeletal face could be seen beneath. It is said that they found the bus driver the next morning, lying unconscious outside the bus. He spent 2 weeks in a coma, and when he awoke, he had lost all control of his senses. They put him in a mental institution and this is the story he told from his cell.

Halloween Tale – Cemetery Garlands

It was Halloween night in 2004 and a young boy was being picked on by his brother and some older kids from school. They dared the young boy to go into the graveyard at midnight with a bunch of garlands and place one on each of the gravestones. Not wanting them to think he was a coward, the young boy accepted the challenge. It was a moonless night and the inside of the cemetery was pitch black. The rusty gates of the cemetery opened with a creak and the boy cautiously entered. He looks at his watch. It was midnight. The witching hour. Clutching the garlands tightly, he made his way to the middle of the graveyard. He was shaking with fear, but he tried to steady his nerves. He was afraid that if he returned without completing the task, the older boys would laugh at him. Moving slowly through the cemetery, he got the distinct feeling that someone or something was watching him. Finally, he managed to place each garland on a gravestone and his task was complete. “Well,that’s all of them”, he whispered to himself. Just then, he felt a cold hand on his shoulder as a voice hissed “You forgot mine.”
