Ann on Ghosts

“Are you afraid of ghosts?” It wasn’t a question I was expecting, not from a three-year-old anyway. Just as we were getting socks and shoes on, getting ready to leave, Ann had asked me that today.

Where did she get ahold of the concept? Could be anywhere, but probably from some TV show, and I doubt that she connects “ghost” with “restless sprit of the dead, condemned to wander the Earth” or some notion like that. For her, it would just be a flighty character that scares the other characters. Details to follow.

“No, I’m not.” Honest answer. Can’t say I’ve had any experience with haints, except in story and song. “Are you?”

“Yes!” Well, good. What would childhood be without some fear of the supernatural?
