I love ghost stories but they scare me so much. It's all good until I can imagine some little girl in a nightgown staring at me when I sleep. I don't tell the camper ghost stories, it's not worth what could happen. We had several ghosts at my camp last summer. Stories were swapped among the staff. While some were obviously untrue, there were some very credible people claiming to have seen the ghosts.
There is a particular cabin at my old camp that was haunted. Campers are NEVER EVER told of camp ghosts (especially in junior where this girl was.)Two years ago a girl at her first summer there, from this cabin (who had no ties to camp before her being there)drew a picture for her counselor of everyone in their cabin. The counselor noticed there was an extra person and asked the camper who it was. The girl said, "That's the girl who watches us sleep."
On a lighter note,my sister goes to Camp Sweeney, for people with juvenile diabetes. THere they have some sort of monster that flies over the camp. Actually it is a volunteer who owns his own plane and he drops sugar free gum from it for the campers. I think that's so cool, and so nice of him. The campers, even the little ones, underxtand he is not an actual monster. He flies over in the middle of the day, so the atmosphere is fine.
