My Whaley House Adventure - Fact or Fiction?

I posted The Haunted Whaley House in San Diego two weeks ago as my submittal to the Carnival of Genealogy. In the story, I told about the double-dare to spend a night in the house - we had to sneak in, of course.

One of the twists of the 58th Carnival of genealogy was that the story could be fact or fiction. I only had three comments - Bill and Jasia said Fact, but Apple said Fiction. Which one was it?

Well, Regis did have a show about the Whaley House, it apparently had one or more ghosts, I did have a friend Randy, we did double dare each other, and then we chickened out. We didn't even go down there to check it out. So it was FICTION. About the best I can do - this engineer can't craft scenes and action very well - I'm pretty much a "just the facts in a plain wrapper" type of guy.

I thought it was a great story. The kind you would hear as a kid when away at summer camp or something. Save it for your grandchildren!

Either way, Randy, fact or fiction, it was fun to read!
