Haunted Cottage From Canada...slightly edited

You know, as a kind, I was really naïve. I believed everything people told me. Even if it was completely impossible... I trust and get fool a lot of time. But now as a grow up. I start a few years ago to search proof to believe, but when I lived the case of the old cottage... I start to think again that impossible can be real.

My boyfriend and I rent a cottage in 1995 in Matane, a little town in Canada. We pay a really low price thinking that if it was that bad, we just have to complain. The first day we were really impressed by the beauty of the cottage. A huge 2 floors cottage. We wonder why they rent us that cottage at completely reasonable price... we knew the second night. We were by the nearby lake and get on water for a little midnight bath when I turn over to see the cottage. I saw that the lights on the second floor was all open. It's wasn't so bad because I always forget to close lights. But after a moment all the the lights closed. And I was WITH my boyfriend ! I start to think that someone was in the cottage, but how one person can close 7 switches at a time.

 We put on our clothes and went back to the house. My boyfriend asked me to stay on the porch during the time he get inside. After a moment he came back telling me that nobody was there. We just come in again and sit down near the fire place.. when fire light up ! Alone ! We turned to see the other room and on the stairs was walking an old man. A bluish man who stop and look at us. He show us the fireplace with his finger and disappeared. He look over.... the fire has stopped. 

At that moment, my boyfriend saw a mark on the fireplace floor. We look up and behind the brisk wall, it was a skeleton. We call the police and they to told us that the body was a old person because of the shape of his teeth. We have learned that the man we saw in the stairway was the mayor of the city in 1887 and that he probably dies murdered by his creasy wife. After that we buy the cottage and we never saw the old man after that. But at the same day two year ago, I found a medallion in the fireplace. A very old one. I like to think that it is a gift from the old man....
