The Haunted Cabin
Two girls were hiking when they got lost in the woods and they stumbled upon a children’s camp. They asked if they could spend the night and find their way back to their campsite in the morning. The camp counselors informed them that all of the cabins were taken but they could camp out by the campfire. This was when one of the girls noticed a cabin sitting atop a small hill. It looked empty and she inquired why they couldn’t spend the night there. The counselors all responded with dread. It was a very evil and haunted cabin and was kept locked up and empty. They explained that none of the children would go near it and late at night they could hear noises from there and even see spooky lights. As far as they knew that cabin had been sitting there and empty when the camp was first established. Supposedly no one wanted to knock it down for fear that the camp would be cursed.

Afterward, every night at exactly midnight, the candle lit up, and one could hear the maniacal laughter of a woman. The old-timers in the closest village Pineville nodded their heads when they heard about the candlelight in the cabin's window. It simply meant the spirit of crazy Anna had returned.
