The ghost and the Bacon
A friend of mine lived in a small country village called Edgmond, up until his early teens.

The house that they lived in had 4 stories + an attic, and was hundreds of years old.

All that space is enough to creep anyone out, especially a creaky old house that always made you feel..somebody is watching.

He was frequently on his own, as his mum and dad had split up etc. etc. He would often have to sort out his own dinner, anyway, he found on the kitchen table a pack of bacon. Strange?? I never got that out earlier? So he put it away and went about doing whatever the fuck it is teenage lads on their own do.. (oh yeah I remember, wank alot).

Next day, and there it was again..the pack of bacon, sat on the kitchen table.

The whole house was fitted with state of the art burglar alarms and sensors, so how the fuck can a pack of bacon jump out of a fridge and sit on a table 6 ft away?

Freaked out he called a mate over.. "See this bacon" he said.. "Watch what I am doing". His mate watched as he put it back in the fridge. They then set the alarms and went out.

Upon return, the alarms were still set, but, the bacon was sat on the kitchen table.

There was nobody in the house? Or was there ! Loading one of his fathers shotguns, the 2 teenagers nervously checked out every room, on every floor, all 4 floors until they came to the attic.

He had always had a gut feeling that the attic wasn't right somehow, and had been reluctant to even venture up to the 4th floor.. so after several games of rock, paper scissors, he bravely peered inside. His mind raced as he expected somebody to jump out from the shadows and grab him.. nothing, but darkness.

There was nobody in the house. Except for two terrified teenagers.

They never could explain the bacon.

yes
little bit excessive to shoot someone with a shotgun for moving the bacon

This may simply be me being a little bit trigger happy
But i would just blow the living(?) shite out of whatever seemingly wasn't in the attic
even though i'm just a nutcase :)
