I have told this story since it happened and don't know if anyone has ever took it serious other than the people involved. But here goes.....I'm 30 now, this probably happened when I was around 12 or 13. We used to live in Shively off Crums Ln., my house backed up to Farnsley golf course, for anybody who is familiar with the area. I was in the back yard with the two neighbor kids. We were playing hide and seek, right as the sun was dropping. It was still light outside, but 10 or 15 minutes before dark, you know, like when your on the water and it seems like about the time every fish in the lake starts breaking the surface. Anyway, we had been playing this game for an hour or so, and most of the spots to hide had been already used. There was a flood ditch that seperated my back yard from the 2nd hole on the golf course. While the little girl was leaning against a tree on my back deck covering her eyes and counting, me and another boy scrambled around the back yard looking for a good spot to hide. She had about reached 20 when we both jumped in the ditch. As we leaned up against the ditch, with our heads poking out, just enough to watch her look all around the back yard for us, we started to laugh because she could not find us, and blew our cover. Once she noticed our heads poking up from the ditch, she started to run straight towards us, when all of a sudden she stopped 20 or 30 feet from us, started screaming like she was on fire, and ran out of my back yard as fast as she could. About that time, me and the other boy looked to our right, and as clear as day, make no mistakes about it. There was a large figure shaped like a man in a long robe or sheet like outfit, maybe 6 or 7' tall floating 3' off the ground. Moaning, and heading straight towards us, I didn't waiste a lot of time, getting to know the guy, so as far as what it looked like, its a little unclear. But I do remember it had a tall top hat, like Frosty the snowman. We both bolted for the house, and never looked back. It took months for me to go in the back yard. This is the honest truth, with no exageration. We were not high, and yes.....I'am mentally stable. Something I can remeber like yesterday, and will never forget. I get chills on the back of my neck just thinking about it now.
