A City of Ghosts (Horror)
1 chapters   —   updated Sep 27, 2010 05:27pm
Description: This is a chapter from my book, A CITY OF GHOSTS. In real life, there is an ancient infant burial at that intersection which is now under the road, but I haven't heard any good ghost stories about it, so I had to make one up.
