Title: Did We See a Flashlight
1Did We See a Flashlight?
2There is an abandoned hotel in Mineral Wells,
Texas.
3 It has been said to be haunted by all sorts of
ghosts.
4 One night a group of friends and I decided to go
explore the Baker Hotel.
5 Once we got through the fence and found a way
into the hotel we came upon the lobby area.
6 It was so open and gave you a chill just
standing there.
7 It was dark every hallway and room was dark.
8 We had a couple of flashlights but not enough
for everyone.
9 We didnt think it would be that dark.
10 There were a total of six of us.
11 We split into groups of three because a group of
six got to be pretty crowded.
12 As I was walking down the hall I could have
sworn I saw a light coming from a room at the end
of the hall.
13 My other two friends did not see it and thought
I was trying to scare them.
14Is That a Flashlight?
15As we got closer to the room with my other
friends started to see the light and started to
freak out a little bit.
16 I told them lets go and check it out.
17 We look into the room and see a flashlight just
sitting there on the floor that was really dim
like the batteries in it were about to die.
18 I figured someone else was here before us and
just dropped the light when they left, but my
friends were starting to get paranoid.
19 They came up with stories about how a ghost took
them away and all that was left was their
flashlight.
20 After a little while longer of exploring we left.
21 The only weird thing we found was that
flashlight.
22 I still do not know how that flashlight got
there, but there must be some story behind it
that I will never know.
23A Ghost Attached To the Flashlight
24I decided to leave the flashlight there in the
room.
25 I may not be too afraid of facing a ghost or
anything jumping out at me, but I am a little
superstitious.
26 My thinking is that if I took the flashlight
with me something would have followed me back
home from the hotel.
27Superstitious About a Flashlight
28It might seem kind of weird to be superstitious,
but a lot of people are wary about ghosts and
other unknown things.
29 We may never know if there was something really
attached to that flashlight or not, but I am glad
I did not find out.
