Caroline and Richard

On November 11, 2009 I received an e-mail from Heather and Justice about an interesting ouija board experience:


Hello. Our names are Heather and Justice. We have been experiencing some odd things around our apartment, so we decided to try a Ouija Board. The first few tries did nothing, but the last try was very successful.

Heather: Is there anyone here who would like to speak to us?

Board: Goodbye

We're not sure what happened exactly, but since then we have heard what sounds like a little girl humming in the bedroom on a few occasions, and an old man coughing in the kitchen once. We've done some investigation in the town's library and there was, in fact, a man who lived her named Richard who committed suicide in 1923, and a little girl named Caroline who lived in the house next door who went missing in 1920. They never found Caroline or her body. She was 5 years old when she went missing.
