STRANGE LIGHT

JUST OUTSIDE PITTSBURG THERE REMAINS THE RUINS OF A LARGE COLONIAL
MANSION AND SOME STABLES. THE FAMILY THAT HAD LIVED THERE WERE
VERY RICH YET THE ENTIRE FAMILY WAS KILLED ONE BY ONE BY A STRANGE
EPIDEMIC THAT SWEPT THROUGH THE HOUSE. AS A MEMBER WOULD DIE HE
WOULD BE BURIED THIRTY YARDS BEHIND THE MANSION IN A SMALL WOODED
AREA. THE ENTIRE FAMILY WAS BURIED THERE AND OVER THIS ENTIRE
BURIAL AREA WAS PLACED A MOSAIC PATIO. IF ON PASSING THIS SPOT AT
NIGHT YOU WILL SEE A GLOWING, BLUE LIGHT COMING FROM THIS MOSAIC
PATIO.
