NOTE:
The following story was submitted by Amando Alvarez to Idaho
Ghosts.
I
lived at 48 South Fisher, in Blackfoot, Idaho. Actually, I
grew up in that house. In the early 60's one of my brothers
had decided to establish the basement as his bedroom. It was
not many days after that when he came up one morning terrified
and had a horrific story to tell us. During the night he swore
that a ghost had appeared to him and tried to pull him out
of bed. He grabbed his hair in an effort to drag him up the
stairs. We laughed at his story and thought it was just a
crazy nightmare. He refused to stay there anymore. One of
my other brothers was so incredulous that he volunteered to
stay in the same room.
Nothing happened the first night nor the second. Our speculation
appeared to be correct: it was just a nightmare. But a few
days later, my second brother also came up in the morning
to tell us a horrific tale. It was a carbon copy of my other
brother's story. He also refused to sleep in the basement
anymore. After the second incident, nobody in my family ever
slept there again. Nobody dared go down to that musty room
again! We did use it for storage, and I swear I got a cold
chill whenever I had to go there for anything. I have no idea
if it is still haunted or if anybody sleeps there. It would
be interesting to find out!
I
neglected to mention that somebody had actually died in the
house before we moved in. Our neighbors told us that a young
boy died in an upstairs room. Strangely enough, it was the
room I slept in, BUT I was the only brother who never saw
the ghost!!
Notes
from GOI
Tracy
and I had a very strong impression about this story. The story
is true but it was not a boy we had a feeling of, it was a
lady and she is very mad. The lady was wearing an old Victorian
style dress with long black hair about to the shoulders. We
have not found any evidence to prove our feelings right or
wrong. If you are the author or know the author please E-mail
us so that we can find out the truth behind the story. |
