I'm having doubts about writing this article because I'm afraid that nobody will believe me. My new neighbour seemed quite reasonable at first. Only the look in his eyes was a bit strange.
Then he started looking for graves on his property with a divining rod. He suddenly saw stone formations that he recognised as graves. Everyone else just saw normal lumps of stone.
To each his own, I thought to myself. But then he piled up half a tonne of garden waste in front of a window. Not on his land though, but on mine! I pointed this out to him, but he refused to remove the rubbish. His reason was that he wanted to protect his workshop, a rather run-down building, from burglars.
I used a mini digger to move the rubbish to another part of my garden where it was less of a nuisance,
and my neighbour got really angry. He called me names and threatened to press charges. Then he said he had the right to protect himself against burglars.
I couldn't understand why a burglar would walk half a kilometre through swampy terrain when there was an easy path right outside the neighbour's house. I said the same thing to the neighbour. He replied that phantoms would also take this route to sneak into his house.
I was really perplexed! Phantoms? I thought he was pulling my leg. But, he was very serious. Over the next few weeks, he put up signs, attached coloured plastic ribbons to small ....s and erected a wooden privacy screen. It was all completely pointless, because the direct access to the house was completely open. Two steps and a burglar is at the kitchen door from the local path.
I don't know whether ghosts behave in the same way. But when they see all the prohibition signs and plastic tape, they laugh their heads off. If they're not dead yet.
What should I do?
