SUPERSTITION

IF ONE DRIVES IN A CAR TO BELLE ISLE AND PARKS THE CAR ON A CERTAIN
DARK ROAD, TURNING OUT THE LIGHTS AND REMAINING PERFECTLY QUIET, A
SERIES OF WHITE DOTS WILL POP OUT OF THE WOODS AND CLOSE IN ON THE
WINDSHIELD OF YOUR CAR. IF YOU TURN ON YOUR LIGHTS THEY WILL GO
AWAY.

Submitter comment: I LEARNED THIS AT A GIRL SCOUT CAMP STORY SESSION SEVERAL YEARS
AGO. I HAVE NEVER TRIED IT MYSELF, BUT SEVERAL OF THE GIRLS HAD AND
SWORE THE STORY WAS TRUE.
