THE COLORADO GHOST LIGHTS by Laketempest 2010/02/18 15:08
The cemetery at silver cliff, Colorado, is haunted by weird, blue lights that hover above the graves at night. They were first reported in the 1880s by miners working in the area, but these sightings were put down to drunkenness. However, the phantom lights kept appearing, even to sober people, and investigation proved they were real. The mysterious lights became a tourist attraction after they were discussed in the YEW YORK TIMES in 1967. Some people still think they are a hoax, or a kind of reflection. But the indians have long believed that the souls of the dead appear above graves as shimmering blue lights.
Another glowing ghost haunts a bridge in North Carolina, at the spot where a railway conductor was beheaded by a train. It is said that the flickering spectre is the mans body, searching for his head so that he can rest in peace.
A pirate who hid his treasure in his garden in Maryland, still guards it, although he has been dead for many years. He returns at full moon, turns into a blazing ball of dips and then rolls to the spot where his loot kids buried.
The bride of a New England widower woke in terror one night, as a ghost was pulling the rings from her finger. The mean farmer had taken the rings from the corpse of his first wife and her angry ghost had come to claim them back.
