PA ghost
My parents live in the heart of Amish country in Pennsylvania, so there's quite a few old buildings with some unique history. One of these places happens to have been a tavern/restaurant in varying forms for about 200+ years. It seems that at one point they had used the upstairs as a type of boarding house/hotel back in the 1700's. The story goes that there was a woman named Melinda that had two stillborn children there, and died there shortly after the second stillborn child. She is said to haunt the place ot this day.
Well, my parents went there recently for dinner with some friends. They had heard about the story and my father, thinking it was all a bunch of hoo-ha, said, "Hey Melinda, come have dinner with us." Not a second later, the group of four of them became aware of the radical temperature change. So cold that they were shivering and putting on jackets. They were all visibly shaken when the waitress came by and she asked if everything was okay. They explained what happened and the waitress' reply was, "We don't recommend talking with Melinda unless you're prepared for the unexpected." No sooner had she said that, when the intense cold came upon all of them. Needless to say they ate quickly and left. They intend to go back, but they'll be more prepared this time.
