THE BELLE ISLE GHOST

IF YOU ARE EVER IN THE MOOD TO FIND A GHOST YOU CAN TRY OUT THE
LEGEND OF THE BELLE ISLE GHOST. JUST GO TO BELLE ISLE AT NIGHT AND
TAKE THE ROAD THAT RUNS THROUGH THE GROVE OF TREES ON BELLE ISLE.
FOLLOW THE ROAD UNTIL YOU COME TO A PART IN THE ROAD WITH WOODEN
POSTS ON BOTH SIDES. STOP THERE AND TURN YOUR CAR LIGHTS OFF FOR A
FEW SECONDS AND THEN TURN THEM ON AGAIN. A SLIM WOMAN IN A FLOWING
WHITE GOWN WILL APPEAR. YOU'LL WONDER WHAT IS SO SCAREY ABOUT HER
FOR SHE LOOKS PRETTY GOOD UNTIL SHE GETS UP TO YOUR WINDOW AND YOU
GET A GOOD LOOK AT HER FACE WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE MOST
FRIGHTENING FACE TO LOOK UPON.
