A Freaky Story

While we were leaving Tybee Island this past weekend, we decided to go to the Bonaventure cemetery. It is a very famous cemetery, and very old with really beautiful statues and gravestones. If you have ever seen the movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" you may remember the creepy statue that is featured on the cover of the girl with scales on her hands. (The statue had to be moved after that movie to a museum though). The cemetery is very haunted they say, and I am a firm believer that it is, because of what has happened to us there.
There is this statue of a little girl named "Gracie" whom died of TB at the age of six. She is said to haunt the cemetery. When Rogan was four months old, and Laila was just over 2, we went there at the end of the day. We had arrived in Savannah as it was raining, and went straight there since you can drive through it. When we pulled up to her grave site, I got out of the car with Laila, as it was only sprinkling at that time. Rogan was sleeping so Doug stayed in the car with him. As Laila and I approached the grave, I felt as if someone was there with us (there was no one, and Doug was driving Rogan around). The clouds parted as we said "Hi" to Gracie, and the sun shone down, just in the spot where we were. A few minutes later, a couple walked up to look at the grave too, and the clouds closed up, and it started raining again. As soon as they drove off in the car, it happened again. The clouds parted, it stopped raining, and the sun shone down just in that spot. I saw some movement nearby, which I just passed off as a squirrel.
Then, all of a sudden, Laila started giggling and running around me in circles and up and down the dirt road. I said, "Laila, what are you doing?" She said, "I'm playing with this little girl Momma!" I kept an open mind, and said, "What little girl? Is it this one that the statue is made of?" She said, "Yeah Mommy!" I just stood there watching her have a good time running around with the "little girl" in the sunlight.
I could feel something there with us, but never saw something. However, as we were leaving and I put Laila back in the car, I could see some sort of wave vibration (sort of like the waves you see off a car in the hot sun) up in the trees. I took some pictures, and it came out in the pictures too. We said goodbye to Gracie, and as we left, it started raining again. That was incident number one.
On Monday we went back to Gracie's grave site, and said "Hi" to her. There was a lot of us, so nothing seemed to happen. Then Rogan said he had to pee, and like we always do, we find a bush. We were at the one end of the graveyard, so Doug started walking him toward the edge bushes that were away from any graves. As they were walking down the dirt path, Rogan got hit in the back with a small rock. There was no one around them. Doug saw it come flying out of the corner of his eye. It didn't really hurt him, but it was weird! I think Gracie was trying to get his attention to play with her! (My Grandma thinks we are all crazy, but things were just too freaky!)
