Le moulin abandonné

Halloween story....

In the small village where I grew up, there was a small farm in the middle of nature, at half a mile of the rest of the village. It was called -le moulin abandonné-, the forsaken watermill. The story is that a farmer lived there by himself, quite isolated. One day, he was found drowned in the little pond in front of his farm. Some said it was a suicide. Of course when we were kids with my brother and other kids, we would love to walk around there and tell ghost stories and get scared. I went back there last week-end, the watermill is still forsaken, the surroundings are still gorgeous... I took this picture from one open window. Do you see the ghost?
