Who Ya Gonna Call!?
It's funny looking back on my life thinking how insane some of the stuff I do can be. One thing I think I told most people, but isn't believed for many reasons, is the time I'm convinced I saw a ghost.
Now before you a) think I'm a liar b) think I'm nuts c) think I'm mistaken or d) tell me to shut up because you've heard this story before, just read the rest of this. As far as I know, it was year 8 when me and Marc saw a wierd shadowy thing down the woods appear from nowhere, a silloette of a man. We both saw it; that's why I was so convinced.
But then I began to think about myself personally, before I saw that I NEVER believed in anything unless it had scietific proof. Hell, my favourite show was Star Trek, that showed what a science nerd I was. If something didn't have a logical explanation, I didn't want to believe in it.
But now I'm pretty much the opposite, I hate to have things explained scientifically, and I hate limiting myself to what we know. I'm obsessed by the ideas of paranormal things out there, and that the world isn't all it seemed. And the more I think about it, the more I'm conviced that it was all due to that ghost. Even my shift from a sci-fi fan to a fan of the fantasy genre was because of that. I hate most sci-fi now! (I don't count Star Wars and sci-fi, it's a fantasy in space!).
So, what I saw I can't be sure of, but it sure as hell changed me. So when Boote suggested we try going Ghost Hunting down the same wood that I saw this, I couldn't really say no. I mean, hell, apprantly a kid was murdered down there, which sure makes it seem a likely place for a ghost. So we're gonna take a camera and go down there at night sometime to take pics and see what we find....should be interesting.
If we succeed, we're gonna have to form Ghostbusters UK!!!
Okay, that's a bad idea...
