Michael was scared beyond belief as he made eye contact with the ghost of a union civil war solider. The ghost was looking dead at him, Everything around michael felt ice cold, as if the spirit was drawing out all the warmth in the room. Michael pressed himself up against the bed borad. Michael opened and closed his eyesover and over again hoping what he was seeing was just a dream and that he was going to wake up soon. But no matter how many times he opened and closed his eyes, the ghost was still standing there, staring and unmoving. Michael was left with no choice but to stare at the ghost.Hoping to maybe find the answer to why the ghost was there michael decided to try and ask it something. "Why...why are you here?.....What do you want?" michael asked. The ghost said nothing, all it did was turned its head and pointed toward the doorway and disappeared, leaving michael stunned and terriffied. It left michael so terriffed that he wasnt able to go back to sleep.
The next morning, michael decided to head to the library and try and find out who this solider was. As michael sat at a table flipping through old cesues a librarian apporached him. "Sir do you need any help finding anything?" she asked. "Um...yes im looking for history of my house i just bought." Michael replied. "Ok well where do you live?" she asked. "I just bought theold civil war manison up the street." Michael said. "Oh you bought the old anderson mansion" she said. "So you're familiar with the place?", "Why of course everyone knows the story of the anderson mansion." , "Well was it invovled in a battle or something?" Michael asked. The librarian shook her head. "Nope but the anderson's did have four sons one of them was in fact fought in the civil war." , "What side did he fight for?" Michael asked. "The north or the union as what they were called.", "What happened to him?" Michael asked. "No one knows excatly, but the story goes Jack, the son who fought in the war, was said to have fallen in love with a female slave. According to some reports he was going to marry her in seceret, but he never did." ," What happened?" , "No one knows, some say he was killed by the klun klux klan others say he was murdered by his own father because he had found out about his secert love affair, the rest just say he was killed in battle." the librarian explained.
