BELIEF - GHOSTS

A HOUSE IN CLIFTON FORGE, VIRGINIA WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HAUNTED.
IT WAS SAID THAT A MAN AND HIS WIFE USED TO LIVE IN THE HOUSE.
THE MAN DIED MYSTERIOUSLY AND DISAPPEARED. HE WAS THOUGHT TO
BE BURIED ON THE HILL JUST ABOVE THE HOUSE. HIS WIFE DIED
ABOUT A YEAR AFTER HE DID AND IT WAS SAD THAT SHE HAUNTS THE
HOUSE AND CARRIES A LIGHT UPON THE HILLSIDE LOOKING FOR HER
HUSBAND'S GRAVE.
