Priscilla's Haunted House

The house creaked with the slightest breeze. It seemed to have an energy all its own, a personality as it were, if you will. Priscilla was one of those people who was very cynical of phenomena such as haunted houses. She was a disbeliever...until the night of June 5, 1961! It started out as a two months' stay in the country. She had heard the stories about the house and the strange occurrences associated with it, but she laughed them off...until the night of June 5, 1961!! Priscilla had lived there but a week when, on the morning of June 5, 1961!!!!, she was awakened by a strange, grinding sound!!!!!!!!!!! It goes without saying.....
