Real Haunted Houses

Real Haunted House

Adobe House

Shafter, Texas

Locals say that long ago a young woman and her daughter lived in the house. After marrying a soldier in Pancho Villa�s Army, the woman and her daughter were frequently abused. On particular night, the inebriated man began to beat the woman to death. As she was knocking at death�s door, her daughter came into the room. The soldier, then grabbed the child and threw her into a wall, breaking her back. Enraged, the young woman gathered enough strength to shoot the man in his face. As he fell, an oil lamp collapsed, setting the woman ablaze. Engulfed in flames, the woman went into the next room and held her daughter until they both died. It is said that if one goes to the house on cloudy nights, lays face down, and says “Mama” three times, the smell of burning flesh will arrive. Burned footprints will also appear in the floor.

ive been to shafter texas, i live about 5 hours away from there, and there is a few old buildings in the area, and a few adobe structures are around as well,so it is hard to say which particular building(house) is the haunted 1. but the whole place does give you the creeps at night. its a feeling that your beeing watched, or that your not alone out there.

SO there are a lot stories that sound too far off reach the comon human mind,this one sure is intersting, face down to the floor? how u callout any words whileu are face down to a floor? Mm….does anybody try it yet?
But I do give the story a some other look of the possible reason for the calling and face down etc..
Everytime when we calling a name of peerrson, dead of alive, it give a life energy to it! becasue it mean something to YOU! or otherwise why you call it, so the willbe a effect to your mind after you called, and expect a answer, or may be not! It’s a very sad story and people want the lesson to stay a live so the story willl never die with time.
I think there is no evil in it, just sadness, but look the good side ot the story, stupid or wise as is, it’s up to all of us how we see it and how we retell the story with a kinder heart for a sad sad past.
