check tis ghost story 55552222 The Man On The Bench I hope you enjoy it. This happened few years ago in my home town, Driffield, and I remember it was on Valentine's day. Me and my friend, Kerstie, were walking to her house one night. I forget what we were doing, but on the way to her house we had to pass this memorial garden. It has a few flowers, and a bench that faces a monument from the war, it's quite a nice place with a small river. There is a path that runs behind the bench, and this was the path we had chosen that day. It wasn't quite dark and I remember it was around 6pm because there is a church not far from the garden, and the bells struck just before we walked by. We were both quite happily talking away until we came close to the bench. Then we both went silent, and turned to face the bench. It was very strange because we both did this at the exact same time, in mid sentence, and just stared for what seemed like ages. There was a man sat on the bench with his back to us. He seemed to be wearing a rather large coat, with a biggish collar, it was a greenish color, and he had a large bag next to him. I originally thought the bag was a small child huddled on the bench until I realized how large it was. After what seemed like ages, but was most likely a few seconds, we both realized we were staring but we didn't seem to understand why. Then, at the exact same time, we both realized the guy had no visible head (I know it sounds lame but honestly it is true). Kerstie started to scream. She ran across the road and waited for me on the other side. I didn't quite know how to react and just continued to stare in shock. The guy didn't seem phased by Kerstie screaming, and this creeped me out a little. I thought maybe he was leaning forward, and his head just wasn't visible, so I slowly walked round the side of the bench, to see a front view. The whole time, he didn't move an inch. As I got closer, I saw that he wasn't hunched forward... He really didn't have a head... Just a gaping collar with blackness. Yet he had hands, and feet and everything else. He just sat there with his hands on his knees. At this point, fear got the better of me and I ran after Kerstie. As I caught up with her I paused and looked back... The guy was moving his arms... We then ran all the way to her house. When we actually got home, it was the first time we spoke since we went silent and she said to me "You did see that didn't you?" We then talked about the whole experience, and we had both witnessed the same thing... A headless man in green, sat with a bag on a bench. She also said that she thought the bag was a child too... I thought that was kind of odd. We thought maybe it was a guy from the war waiting for his lover, or grieving for a friend lost in the war, but I doubt we will ever know. I know it seems unlikely but this really did happen, and if it wasn't for the fact that Kerstie saw it too, I'd wonder if I really did see it. I have seen other things but this is by far the scariest.

When I was 5 we moved to a new town where my father had been transfered by his job, and we had a house built. There had been many rumours that the neighborhood was an old burial ground for soliders and later had been moved many years before our house and others were built. I guess it was 3 yrs later, I remember being about 8yrs old when this happened, but one night I got up to go to the bathroom and at the end of the hallway there stood a confederate looking soldier with no legs. They were cut off at the knees. He loooked really dusty and had cobwebs all over him. I dont recall seeing his face although he had a hat on. I remember being really afraid, but I didnt scream or anything I just simply closed the door and went back to my bed. I told my mom about it and of course she tried to convince me I had been dreaming. But I know for sure that I was not dreaming and was completely awake! I saw other ghosts after that, and strange things would happen around our house. Of course no one believed me and would just brush it off with a bit of laughter. But I really do believe that they exist. I loved your story and perhaps that bag contained his head!

In fact, I do not believe that this world is the existence of ghosts, I always think that they are people making up, I did not see them, I think a few people have seen them, but I was afraid of "Ghost", because the word I think of the horrible things.

i don't think ghosts are harmful and haunt for human beings except those that are believed to be murdered unjustly and will want a revenge. i only sometime fall into a trance and see a shadow on me and struggle to free myself, can't shout. whenever it happens to me, i was told it's a ghost and that one of my relatives is about to die and that the person is my close relative. no distant relative ghost will trouble me. i only heard those who are murdered, their ghost often seek revenge and may cause the madness of the victims or anything bad associated to their lives.
