Ruthven Ghost Story | Moving Statue
Shauna and her friend visited Ruthven one night. Walking about the grounds. Down the path, towards the front of the Thompson House.
She Wants to Leave
Nervous to be there, the friend kept pulling at Shauna’s shirt. “Let’s just go okay, it’s not worth it.”
Then they saw a shadow in the distance. The friend yelled, “Shauna, it’s a guard, let’s go!”
But Shauna pulling her forward. Getting closer to see… it was only the statue
Mistaken Bravery
Laughing at her friend, Shauna throw her arm around it. “Come on, take our picture. Me and my new, braver friend.”
Movement from the corner of her eye. Shauna turned to look at the statue, and she told us, “… the statue turned and looked at me.”
She runs. Into the field as fast as her legs went. Stopping to catch her breath. Then remembering her friend!
Turns to call out, Shauna jumps. Here friend is right beside her.
The reason… she also saw the statue move.
