I HAD A DREAM ONE NIGHT THAT I WAS HUNTING WITH MY BROTHER IN THE
WOODS. HE WAS ABOUT 100 YARDS AHEAD OF ME WHEN I SAW HIM STUMBLE AND
THEN A SPIRIT GOT OUT OF HIS BODY, WAVED TO ME, THEN DISAPPEARED IN
THE WOODS. THEN I WOKE UP. THE FOLLOWING DAY, WHILE HUNTING IN THE
SAME WOODS WITH MY NEPHEW, I RECEIVED WORD THAT MY BROTHER HAD DIED
ONLY A MILE FROM WHERE WE WERE.

WHILE HITCHHIKING IN 1936, WE WERE GOING TO NEW YORK. WE HAD GOTTEN
A RIDE FROM A FARMER BUT HE HAD TO LEAVE US ON THE OPEN ROAD. MY
FRIEND AND I DECIDED TO REST ON A BLUFF WHERE WE COULD SEE IF ANY
CARS WERE COMING. WE WERE THERE FOR A WHILE WHEN WE HEARD FOOTSTEPS.
THE MOON WAS FULL AND WE WERE SURE THAT WE DIDN'T SEE ANYBODY ON THE
ROAD. AN OLD MAN WAS WALKING TOWARD US. AFTER EXCHANGING GREETINGS,
HE ASKED IF WE WERE HUNGRY. HE THEN OFFERED US A COCONUT HE GOT
FROM A FARMER. HE SLOWLY WALKED AWAY AND DISAPPEARED FROM OUR SIGHT.
I CLIMBED TO THE TOP OF THE BLUFF ONLY TO FIND A CEMETERY. SCARED,
WE WENT TO THE ROAD AND HITCHED A RIDE TO A DINER. THERE THE SHERIFF
WAS DESCRIBING AN OLD MAN, THE ONE WE MET. HE HAD BEEN DEAD FOR
FOUR WEEKS. WHEN WE HEARD THIS, WE FAINTED. AFTER TELLING WHAT
HAPPENED TO THE SHERIFF, HE TOLD US THAT THIS WAS THE THIRD TIME IT
HAD HAPPENED IN TWO WEEKS.

THE WHITE LADY
ON THE NIGHT OF JULY 7 1967, MY GIRLFRIEND AND I WENT FOR A RIDE
THROUGH BELLE-ISLE PARK DETROIT MICHIGAN. AS I TURNED LEFT ON
WILDWOOD DRIVE
I DECIDED TO PARK THE CAR THE STREET BEING DARK AND QUIET. ABOUT
1/2 HOUR LATER I LIT UP A CIGARETTE, THROWING THE MATCH OUT THE
WINDOW I WAS SHOCKED AT THE SIGHT OF A TALL, SLENDER PERSON
STANDING ABOUT 12' FROM MY CAR. THE FIGURE WAS DRESSED IN A
WHITE CAPE-LIKE GOWN WHICH SEEMED TO BLOW FROM THE BREEZE.
I DID'NT WAIT AROUND TO ASK QUESTIONS.
