Okay, okay, J, we get it. But now we want to know what frightens you, in honor of Halloween. Could there
be such a thing in the world? You strike me as the type who isn't easily frightened, but I expect you'd find human ignorance or something of the kind to be "creepy." (Haha, I almost wrote "crappy.")

According to any sensible dictionary, an anecdote does not refer to one's actual experience of an event, but to the account of an event, whether or not the event ever really occurred and whether or not the person giving the anecdote actually experienced the event.

The topic creator misused the word. Under Imperial Law, the first misuse of a word is punishable by not more than twenty days in the Grand Penitentiary; any additional instances of misuse are punishable by not more than six months. Additionally, under Code 7 of Forum Etiquette, the misuse of a word in a topic title is a Class Two Felony punishable by not less than twelve months imprisonment and a $1,250 fine.

Yeah, I kinda realized that once I posted that. I should really stop staying up late. @_@

When I was 11 years old my family visited London and we stayed in these old apartment buildings.  One night I woke up and saw three unmoving ghostly shapes in the air at the edge of the bed.  I was terrified, but I convinced myself that it was obviously a dream.  So I pinched myself and nothing happened.  They were still there.  They had the general shape of a human, but no features were distinguishable.  I hid my face under the blanket, hoping that when I looked back up again they would be gone.  They weren't--they were still there.

Eventually, they disappeared.  I hid my head underneath the blanket and I must have fallen asleep because the next time I woke up it was daylight and they were gone.

I am not making this up and I know this was not a dream.  I don't believe in ghosts or even in a supernatural realm, but this was just weird.  The mind does crazy things!

If I did believe in ghosts, I'd say this was a legit ghost sighting.
