Ghost Considerations in the Real Estate Market
The kinds of ghosts that I think I could live with if I were living in a nice house:
- Ghosts who write on the walls in blood
- Ghosts who walk around downstairs at night
- Ghosts who like to close doors and sometimes keep them shut for awhile
- Ghosts who like to stand in dark corners and just stare
- Ghosts who want crimes solved, such as their own murder
- Ghosts who tidy up
The kinds of ghosts that I could not live with, regardless of how nice the house was:
- Ghosts who scream and scream and scream
- Ghosts who like to position their faces right above my sleeping face so that they're the first thing I see when I wake up
- Ghosts who start fires
- Ghosts that smell bad
- Ghosts that can touch me, no matter how lightly
- Ghosts that insist on sleeping in the same bed as me
- Ghosts who never get around to telling me that the reason I can see them is because I am also dead, and a ghost. Those ghosts are real jerks.
