Ghost Story/Legend request

[Mervyn]

I hope this is in the right forum , and if this has already been posted I apoligize, but we hear lots of ghost stories/legends and in some cases sounds or pictures, all are which up for debate regarding their authenticity.

What I want to know, are there any stories about Ghosts that are known to be harmless or better yet humorous ? ?

Check out Nick, the ghost of the Purple Masque Theater at Kansas State. This site tells the basics, though it leaves out one of my favorite stories. Supposedly, they held a seance in the building one night and ask Nick what they could do to ease his troubled soul. He told them to run a dalmation through the building at midnight.

Hi, Mervyn,

Interesting question that because I would imagine that most ghosts ARE harmless. It is Hollywood I think and "horror" authors who give the impression that all ghosts go around snarling and killing and using too much much make-up.

All the ghosts I have seen have been quite harmless and gave the impression that they had no idea I was around....except of course...the first one. That was different. But even then all it did was frighten me speechless. I like the haunted signature but, there again, why do so many book titles and film posters always write the words "Haunted" and "Ghost" with blood-streaked letters? In fact I have never ever heard of a ghost killing anyone. Lonecat
