The Sexton House

Episode 34

FINAL CHAPTER

Anna loosely holds onto my back, as I
float both of us above the water. Her
head is resting on my shoulder and legs
wrapped around my waist. I begin to
hum a random tune while holding this
stunning girl in my arms.

I honestly can not imagine life without
her, but if you would have asked me a
few weeks ago I would have never
thought I would be in this position. I
didn’t even believe in falling in love so
quickly, let alone falling for a ghost. But
that just shows that time can change
anything. The rain drizzles down on us,
slowly starting to die out. I wish it would
rain everyday just so I could be with
Anna, but I know that won’t happen and
I also know that she will be leaving me
soon since the rain was falling.
“I don’t want to go,” she whispers
against my shoulder blade. I don’t want
her to go either, but I know that is
destined to happen.
“You won’t be gone long.” I try to
reassure, thinking she will be back
within a couple of days. If I could sit
here in this water and hold her all night
I would, if it meant she would get to stay
longer, I would.
“I will miss you…” She trails off, as I start
to feel her body fade away from mine.

Within seconds she is completely gone.
The rain stopped, leaving the ground
slightly muddy. I get up out of the water
and start to head back towards the
house. My mind focused on Anna the
entire way there.
When I finally do make it back, I head
straight for the shower, before heading
to bed. I lie awake, craving for another
minute with her.
I wake the next morning to the sound of
someone pounding on my door. I roll
around in bed, attempting to block out
the obnoxious noise from my ears, but
with no luck, I finally get up and stride
towards the door in only my boxes.
“Okay, Charlie that is enough! I am
coming.” I yell.
its been 2 years now and I haven’t seen Anna.
I’m moving to another country but the memories of this house will forever remain with me.

I’m happy for the moments I spent with Anna but I’m disappointed I couldn’t solve the mystery of the old house..I didn’t know about Max Williams or Daniel Sexton.
The Sexton House in Russell ville
KY. The old house sat at the corner of the cemetery it is spooky looking. It was the kind of place you
would expect to be haunted. There was never
anyone around the house, and the lights were
never seen on. It just sat there guarding the
ornate markers and gravestones of the
cemetery. The second floor tower held old
glass windows that shimmered colors of blue
and purple in the sunlight. When the sun’s
reflection was just right you could see the
outline of a girl in the old glass, and that has
become the ghost of the sexton house.
Legend has it that a hundred years ago a
young girl who lived in the Sexton House was
waiting for the arrival of her boyfriend to go
to a dance in town. The weather was turning
bad and thunder clouds were on the horizon.
The girl’s father, the sexton, forbid her to go
to the dance thinking that it was probably
canceled anyway due to the storm, and her
boy friend never arrived. She was angry with
her father, angry with the weather, angry
with her boyfriend. She cursed God and
swore at her father. At that moment, while
she stood at the window cursing God,
lightning struck her, forever casting her
shadow into the glass of the tower window.
