This story or episode/incidence occured in a Trailer Park in a Mobile Home/Coach Where myself and my wife had lived in from 1973 to 1979. On several occassions both and my wife had heard what sounded as footsteps walking from the front door entrance to to about 3/4 of the length of the coach where they just ended.

The one night in particular was one in which my parents had chanced to visit, the time was about ten p.m. as my father was one of those persons who was erarly to bed and early to rise. I remember we were sitting on an old sofa I had kept from a previous home I had before selling and moving after my wife and I were married.

It was I believe about late summer or early fall, 1977 or therebouts, when as we (my dad and I)were just casually talking when he asked me who had come in. Both I first, then my stated no one. But he, as well as I, my wife and my mother heard the footsteps. It seemed that they had walked up to about the middle of the sofa and then ended. We saw no apparations, ghosts, specters or otherwise. It had only happened a few times before and as I recall only once or twice after.

It was only later that I had discovered that there was the real possibility that the park had built upon either an indian burial site or an old long past graveyard.

After we moved we never heard anymore about it as that has now been over twenty-two years ago. It only bothered us the first time, and not feeling worried or threatened or such, we never really persued it or truely found out, so we will probably never know if it was just ground movement or some such or maybe it was perhaps just a friendly visitor of some time in the past?
