This strange story was told to me by a woman coworker who had just moved from Vallejo to the Sacramento area. During our lunch break, I was reading a reader's digest about hauntings when Lisa ( coworker ) asked what I was reading. I informed her of the subject and she became very silent of which I thought was odd. She said nothing more thoughout the break which again is not her nature. Lisa was a very talkative person and I have never seen her behave like this. She seemed to be distant and withdrawn. The next day during our lunch break, I asked her what was troubling her from the previous day. She said stories of hauntings, ghost, and apparitions brings back very unpleasant memories.
I was finally able to coax Lisa into telling me her story. Lisa and her husband had lived in an old house they had acquired in Vallejo a few years ago. During their move in period, Lisa thought she saw flashes of white transparent streaks which would dart down the hallway and into different rooms of the house. After numerous sightings of these white apparitions and a growing sense of uneasiness, Lisa told her husband. Of course Rich ( Lisa's husband) was clueless and disregarded Lisa's concerns as imaginations. Lisa thought she was going insane and started seeking psychiatric help. Lisa's sightings continued and her feelings of chills and uneasiness escalated during the summer months. Feeling isolated and alone while questioning her own sanity, Lisa was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
Then one day while washing dishes, Rick came to Lisa with a look of bewilderment. He said he too had just witness this strange apparition. White translucent vapors seem to dart across the room and down the hallway suddeningly disappearing into the walls. Rick said he felt the chill in the air during the sighting. Remember, this was a warm summer day. Lisa was finally relieved that she was not going insane. The apparitions continued to appear from time to time but now, Rick was also witnessing them. It was during a weekend when Rick was digging up a old flower planter to install a sprinkler that he struck a buried object. Rich thought it was a rock or a portion of the house's foundation. Digging further down, Rick unearthed a tombstone. Shocked and frighten, Rick reburied his discovery and put the house up for sale shortly thereafter. It was not until Rick and Lisa had moved to the Sacramento area that he informed Lisa of what he had found. Lisa said this is a true story and she is a very honest and trustworthy person. Do you believe?
