“ Miss Hutchinson right? I had already informed Sheriff what I had witnessed from my own window was nothing but a ghostly affair . Both my colleagues and friends were killed by a ghost. How does a person appear out of nowhere and how does the curtains catch fire on its own? You were there right, you must have seen how Raymond was stabbed to death? Oh god! Who’s next? “ he was literally shaking with terror mixed with excitement.
