"Back in August of this year I picked up my brother and his
family from the Kansas City airport and then we drove to Atchison,
Kansas. As we drove around the historic streets of Atchison, I told
them about how this is the most haunted town in Kansas, and that
one of these houses lives "Sally" a girl ghost from the civil war
era.
Back in the mid 1990's the TV show "Sightings"*
did a feature story on "Sally" the scratching ghost. She would only
scratch the man of the house. Some of the scratches on the mans arm
and chest would even bleed.
So about 40 minutes after driving around, telling my brother and
his family about this story, we were swimming and my mother asked
me what are those scratches on my neck? I didn't think much of it
until I took a shower and looked in the mirror! I had four, two
inch long red scratches on the right hand side of my neck! The skin
was never broken, I never felt a thing, and they lasted for three
days before fading away. I have attached a picture (below) of the
scratches, taken about 30 min. after I discovered them."

* I remember this episode of Sightings...the scratches
appeared on the house owner just like that, in front of the
camera~! That episode left a deep impression on me and made me
believe even more in spirits...
