When I was small I slept in a tiny room next to the attic. The only thing between me and the attic was a poorly fitting door and a curtain covering my closet. During the summer my father would open the windows in the attic and, as a result, the wind would blow the curtain out into my room. I was sure it was a ghost and was terrified. When my father explained it all to me, I still wasn't sure, so I begged him not to open the attic windows anymore.
