It was Halloween and Mr Tunstall was giving us a Halloween party. We all had a great time at the party. It was the midnight hour. Or what some people calls the witching hour. Mr Tunstall asked us to take turns standing in front of everyone and telling our best ghost story. I know that the headless horseman is in many legends around the world.

Even in Ireland the birthplace of my mother. But this is no legend that I am telling you.

Well it came Chavez's turn to tell his ghost story. Chavez is a great story teller. Given the fact that he is part Navajo.

We helped Mr Tunstall clean up. After that we went back to the bunkhouse. I decided to go for a walk in the woods.

But what I saw made me stop in my tracks and run back to the ranch. Because there before me was the headless horseman.

I ran as fast as I could back to the ranch. When I had gotten inside the bunkhouse I told everyone what I had seen.

Richard looked at me and said " Billy you need to stop reading all of those ghost stories". Charley said " aww hog boy is scared of the dark." Dirty Steve didn't say anything. Doc and his sister Bunny looked at me with a Sherlock Holmes look on their faces.

My twin sister Belle just looked at me. I just knew that they weren't going to believe me.
