Haunted House?


One of the first times I went into our home after my husband and I met, my husband told me a story about a girl he dated saying she saw a lady in our dining room. It didn't scare me at all-I put a manequin in there for a while -thought it was fun. I've never seen anything or should I say, anyone(ghosts) in our house (in 17 years). I do kinda get creeped out sometimes when I have to go thru the parlor(it's right off our bedroom) in the middle of the nite because in the old days they would lay the dead out in there because there were no funeral homes!
I bought this old buggy at a garage sale a week and half ago for $20-knew right away that it would be great for a halloween decoration.

  11. How eerily beautiful that old baby buggy is, sorta creepy though...just what you'd expect at this time of year though.
    How cool that you were not freaked out by the thought of a "lady" in the dining room.
    I love that story.
    Hugs, Cindy
