Real Haunted Houses

Real Haunted House

Track

Washington, New Jersey

Many years ago, an overweight slightly retarded child named Tommy D ran the mile in 14 minutes and 41 seconds — the worst time in school history. After being teased by his peers, the boy referred to as Tommy Dummy was determined to run the mile faster. One weekend, Tommy went to the field and ran the mile alone in under ten minutes. This is known only because he corpse was found at the finish line the following Monday grasping his stopwatch. Since then, each time students run the mile, they feel cold spots around the field, especially where the body was found. On foggy mornings, others report seeing an apparition jogging around the field. It is further alleged that watches cease to work just as anyone is nearing the finish line — thus no one can ever get an accurate time. Even more uncanny, the second hand is always said to stop on 14 or 41 seconds past the minute.

I, myself live in New Jersey and have been to the “track”. Nothing happened and I even brought a stopwatch, and it didn’t stop at 14 or 41. Is this a myth? Or is it someone with an imaginative mind?

this is bullcrap…I for one, don’t beleive in ghosts. I live in new jersey, yet haven’t been to the track. I bet ut stop watch went dead, because the battery actually just went dead. coincidences do happen you know. Or maybe you’re just trying to scare us. I don’t beleive in this at all. peace out.

It may not be true, but it makes a really good story. You people should just lighten up. Everyone needs a good scare every once and a while, and this is perfect material, even if it might be fake.

This was freaky! I live in NJ but I haven’t been to the track. I want to go. It’s not good to read scary stories when no one’s home. Especially if you think your house is haunted. I think someone is watching me. Anyway, this was really good!!

omg calm down everyone it’s just a story, and you can’t say it’s fake if you’ve never been there. Don’t be so quick to dismiss these tales, i might come back and end up haunting you

I have been to that track that you say is haunted by the boy and I have ran that 4 times and I never felt a cold spot and I have never had my stopwatch say 14 or 41 seconds past the minute. This story is a myth.
