I lived in a rual area of the county so there was no street lights. After leaving the bus I began to walk down the road next to the cemetery. To keep up my courage I began to sing.
It seemed just at that moment I heard a noise behind me on the road. Fearfully, I turned to look behind. I saw nothing in the dark road.
I panicked, and began to run down the road. Just at that moment a neighbor turned on his front light.
Suddently, having light I looked back to see my haunted specter only to see a large black dog with wagging tail had been following me down the road. I was overcome with relief. To this day I avoid a nightly bus trip if possible.
