While we're on the topic of ghosts...

There's an old abandoned insane asylum in Peoria, IL (20 miles from where I used to live) that shut down in 1972. Patients were tortured there. People swear that it's haunted. If you have time, follow this link and read the Old Book story. It will freak you out.

I WANT to read that story but I'm home alone and if I do I'm gonna be completely spooked...I'll have to read it tomorrow. I'm way too chicken to see scary stuff when I'm here by myself. From what you mentioned about tortured asylum patients I'm guessing there are some spooky stories about it....can't wait!

Very cool I love ghost stories! I wanted to tell you guys about somthing that happened to me when i was 5 years old. i had just had surgery on my female parts to stop me from weting the bed. they sent me home, i woke up in the middle of the night and i was wet so i canged and went back to bed, later that night about 4 in the morning i felt somthing touch my shoulder. i looked and it was a female figure you could see right through. i don't know if it was an angel or a ghost but i got up and turned on the light she was gone, but i was covered in blood and so was my bed. my mom took me to the hospital. they said if i would have slept for 2 more hours i would have died. i did have to have a blood transfuson. but what ever woke me that night angel or ghost it saved my life! :D :D
