Here are a couple of other stories. I wanted to make the Civil War re-enactor story the primary one, but the site will not allow it due to a copyright complaint, so here is the link:

Did ghostly soldiers pay re-enactors a courtesy call?

The ghost will be voting for Kerry.

Thanks CB. Now I know JUST where to put Binnie when we finally catch him LOL!

[Fedora]

Thanks, CB!

The ghost will be voting for Kerry.

Yup, along with the illegal aliens and convicted felons. Voter fraud is a primary campaign strategy of the Democrats.... of that there is no question.

Bill when I click on your links it says they do not exist on this server. Whats up?

Some of the guys I used to reenact with took a photo of them lounging next to their tents under some trees.

When the photo came back the tent nearest the camera had dappled light that had filtered through the trees. This dappled light made a photographic image. The image WAS one of those photos of a soldier's reunion that you sometimes see. Old men all arranged in rows.

Strangest thing I have seen. You could look at it as leaves and it looked like leaves, you could look at it as a photo and it looked like a photo. Weird.

Sorry about that .... maybe FR archived them. Let me check on that. I pasted the whole thing from previous posts, so these links were live at one time.

Here's one that does work:

Hotel makes ghost a guest

I guess this is Leadville Colorado right? Years ago I had a strange experience in Silver City Colorado. We were on vacation with our little kids.

We went to eat in a building that had been an old saloon with a brothel upstairs, The Bent Elbow Saloon, I think it was called. We sat down & ordered our lunch and an old rinky tink piano started to play.

We were having a great time & laughing when all of a sudden I began to feel sad. In a few minutes the saddness turned to tears. I was crying like a tragedy had occurred. My family was shocked & embarrassed.

I went outside to compose myself and as soon as I got outside I felt fine & the tears stopped. I went back in & the tears started streaming again. I had never felt such terrible saddness.

Finally I had them bring my lunch outside & I didn't try to go back in again.

Any thoughts on this weird event?

Maybe these will work. The problem might have been "smart quotes" in MS Word.

Add me to your ping list, please.

[CurlyBill]

Sure thing ..... you're on.

Hey Curly, can you please add me to your ping list for ghosts? This is my favorite subject. I've searched for ghost stories on FR before, but none of these stories turned up.
Thanks

Lay off the hard stuff in the afternoon.

I was then & am now a tee-totaler. Think of another excuse.

Ooooh, spooky stories!

There's a house down the street from my parents that's going on about its 5th owner in the last 2 years.

Seems a guy in the 80's hung himself in the garage and no-one seems to stay in the house for more than a few weeks since then.
