The James T. Callow Folklore Archive

MY FAMILY IS FROM THE SOUTH, ONCE I REMEMBERED MY UNCLE
TELLING ME, AS HE WAS WALKING DOWN THE ROAD, ON HIS
WAY HOME, HE TURNED AROUND AND LOOK{ED} IN BACK OF
HIM AND HE SAW A DOG. EVERYTIME HE TURNED AROUND, THE
DOG GOT BIGGER AND BIGGER. MY UNCLE SAID HE TOOK
OFF RUNNING.

Submitter comment: THIS DOG WAS A HANK AND HANKS ARE GHOSTS.
