THERE'S AN ABANDONED HOUSE IN SALYERSVILLE, KENTUCKY
THAT GIVES OFF A WEIRD AND STRANGE "OOOOOOOOOOOO" WHENEVER
THERE'S A FULL MOON. SOME FOLKS SAY THAT THERE'S A GHOST
OR SOMETHING IN THERE BECAUSE THE OLD LADY THAT LIVED
THERE DIED OF POISON ON A NIGHT OF THE FULL MOON. I
DON'T BELIEVE OF SUCH THINGS, THOUGH. IT'S PROBABLY
JUST A BUNCH OF FOLK TALES.
