I once told my little brother that when our house had been built one of the men working on it had fallen into the cement and drowned in it, and that his body was still under our house. I then proceeded with that this man haunted our house and looked out the window and pretended i saw him walking up the driveway. When I got older I would think on that and get scared when I was downstairs in the den by myself....just in case it was real.
