[00:25.58]Great Grandma's Strange Story
[00:36.86]曾祖母的奇怪故事
[00:50.83]I love listening to my great-grandma's stories,
[00:54.27]so I didn't object when she started to tell me a story
[00:57.78]about one of her strange experiences
[01:00.14]over a glass of iced tea...
[01:04.74]My Great-Great Grand-dad died in 1918
[01:08.54]at the age of 48
[01:10.46]when he fell off of a galloping 1 horse.
[01:14.43]My Great Grandma was only 17 when this happened.
[01:18.96]The story goes that at the get together after the funeral,
[01:23.75]a strange man showed up.
[01:26.41]No one had seen him at the funeral,
[01:29.15]or anytime else for that matter.
[01:32.40]He stayed for a long time,
[01:34.57]hardly talking to anybody,
[01:37.10]and refusing to take off his coat and hat.
[01:40.90]When my Great-Great aunt pointed 2 out to this man that,
[01:44.49]for the life of her,
[01:45.62]she could not recall who he was,
[01:48.81]he became absolutely livid and ran from the house.
[01:53.48]You can imagine how strange this seemed to everybody.
[02:04.23]Curiosity got the best of Great grandma
[02:06.99]and she decided 3 to follow this strange man
[02:09.98]outside to see where he had gone.
[02:13.51]She stepped outside
[02:15.20]and proceeded out into the middle of the yard,
[02:18.90]but she stopped short
[02:20.81]because the strangest sight met her eyes...
[02:25.04]the man was standing 4 quietly on the roof of the barn,
[02:28.81]just about 5 yards away,
[02:31.16]illuminated only by the moonlight.
[02:34.67]She remembers that
[02:36.16]he had an unnatural 5 gleam to his eyes,
[02:40.03]and when the clouds passed over the moon,
[02:42.95]and the night was pitch black, that gleam remained.
