Max opened all of them, as he had her lean over the sink and started renting her hair out. When that was done, he started rinsing his wife's eyes off and when that was done, macksburg detail from the rack, putting it around her.

"Look Max," Dixie said to her husband, when he looked at the mirror and there was writing on it. Read as follows help me...help me Max was done by what he saw.

"This is spooking me," He said to his wife was a scratchy voice, since nothing ever spooked him.

"Me too," She said back to her husband with a scared look on her face. They walked out of the bathroom and slipped, as they fell to the ground.

It's just from going to get the water Max and Dixie talk to themselves with a side. When they looked at the floor, they were wrong as Max and Dixie saw a young girl's footprints.

"What," Dixie said out loud, since she wasn't expecting this and knelt down. When she touched it with her fingers, Dixie look at it and notice it was blood.

She noticed there was blood on her towel, when Max noticed it was on him to and didn't know what to think, as the footprints vanished. When they made it to the kitchen, the burners ignited and Max went to turn it off.

He reach for the knobs, when he noticed they were all on off position and couldn't believe his eyes. What's going on here Max and Dixie thought to themselves, as they went to try to turn it off again and started smelling food cooking, but there was none.

When the stove turned off, as they headed to the room to go to bed and noticed something wrong in the dining room. Well stepping inside, there was candles floating in mid-air" I think we got a ghost," He said to his wife with a chuckle.

"I think so too," Dixie said to her husband with a grin, before giving him a kiss.

"It's not hurting us," She said to her husband with a kind voice.

"Yeah, that's true," He said back to Dixie with a smile. Max and Dixie headed up to the room and when they got there, they stepped inside making their way to the bed.

After that, they slipped under the covers and started talking about who had lived there before them. "All we know, is the house was owned by a couple and they couldn't pay their taxes, then the bank took it," Max said to Dixie with a smile.

They started thinking, the owners lost this house and decided to move somewhere else and died. "Maybe they came back, to visit the house once in awhile," She said to her husband with a sigh.

"I don't know, but hopefully this doesn't get any worse," Max said to her with a straight face.

"I think we're just tired," He said to his wife, then kissed her on the cheek. They agreed with one another, as a few minutes went by and they were out like a light.

The next morning, Max and Dixie was woken up by a door slamming and they decided to get up. They decided to go in search of the door that was doing that, when Max and Dixie found it.

The front door was wide open,"Honey look," She said to him with a surprised look on her face.

"What is it baby?" He asked her with a curious look on his face.

"On the ground, right there," Dixie said with a sign, hoping he saw it too.
Max looked in the direction, that his wife was pointing at and saw blood, like someone had been crawling down the driveway.

Max and Dixie decided to follow it to the road and they noticed the blood marks had vanished. The two of them couldn't believe it, so they walked back to the house.

"Honey, are you hungry?" Dixie asked her husband with a smile.

"Yes sweetie, I am," Max said to her with a wink and a hug.

What am I going to fix for breakfast She go to herself, while walking down the hallway to the kitchen. When she arrived at the door, Dixie stepped inside and started pulling out eggs, ham as well as biscuits.

She headed over to the counter, set the stuff down and grabbed the pans from the bottom cabinet. Dixie made her way to the stove, as she put them on to warm up and then, she went to get the biscuits on a cookie sheet.

When she had them on it, Dixie made her way over to the stove and set them in, turning the oven on. After that, she made her way over to the bowl on the counter and grabbed four oranges, before pulling the juicer out.

Dixie return to the stove and started the ham and gravy, before making her way back to start the juice. While she was doing that, the first orange Dixie did was fine in the next two, came out red.

She dumped it out, rinsing it thoroughly and Dixie was trying to figure it out. After doing that, she decided to try the last one and Winn-Dixie did, there was blood coming out of it.

"Honey...honey come here!" She hollered out to her husband and Dixie hope it would not change, before Max there.

While she was waiting for her husband, Dixie kept a eye on it and that's when Max walked in. What is it now He thought to himself with a dumbfounded look on his face.

"What love?" Max said to his wife with a sigh, as he waited to find out what was going on this time.

"Look honey...look at it," Dixie said to him with big eyes, while pointing at the juicer. When he saw it, there was blood in the glass and wondered if it was a different kind of orange.

Max wasn't going to take a chance, has he grabbed it and started pouring it out. While he was taking care of that, Dixie continued with making breakfast.

That's when he saw it, there was a long piece of hair in a piece of scalp, that came out of the glass. There isreally something strange going on here and can't figure it out it Max and Dixie thought to themselves with a confused look on their face.

After the two of them finished eating, they decided to do the den and get it done, before working on the outside. When they go to the front left door, they slit it open and stepped inside, setting the paint cans down.

He started painting the walls tan, while his wife started on the trim was white paint. While they were doing that, a couple hours went by and Max and Dixie had finished it.

"How do you like it, baby?" She asked her husband with a curious look on her face, since he would be working out of their. When she started looking out the window, Dixie was waiting for his answer and she was thinking, she had saw something.

Dixie didn't know for sure"Yes, I do like it," Max  said to her was a smile. After she heard that, Dixie left the room and went to get them something to drink.

Max was excited about it, when he heard something from the front of the house and it gave him Goosebumps, but he couldn't figure it out. He decided to take a look outside, when Max saw a man walking down their driveway and he was headed towards the road.

"Hello...but no answer!" Hollered out to the man, but there was no response. He noticed, the man was carrying something in his hand and couldn't tell what it was, except it had a handle.

Max decided to call the police, as he dialed the number and it rain constantly, but there was no answer. Max decided to go let his wife know, that he was going into town on what he had saw.

"Lock all the doors and windows," He told his wife with a Stern voice, before walking away.

Did she didn't question her husband,"Hurry back!" She hollered to him, while Max was grabbing his keys. After grabbing them, he walked out the door and locked it behind him, before heading to the truck.

While Max was doing that, Dixie was running all over the house and locking everything that needed to be locked. He pulled out of the driveway, keep an eye out for the man and pulled onto the road, heading to the police station.

Meanwhile at the house, Dixie had finished locking everything up and her cell phone started ringing, as she ran to answer it. "Hello," Dixie said to the other person on the other side of it, not knowing who it was.

"Hi honey, are you okay?" Max said back to his wife with a sigh, hoping everything was okay there.
