  1. A Ghost Story

    Share Share Post
    Once upon a time there was a man who lived by himself in a country house. He was very fond of drink, after having all his money spent he got mad and cut his throat. At a certain hour every night if any one is passing by this house will see a big black dog with large red eyes as he paces up and down in front of the house.
