Recently on the way to investigate a series
of ghost lights in north Texas I came across
an abandoned school in the small town of Pottsville.
The school was not ideal for a paranormal
investigation.
The floors were rotted and the walls were
in bad shape.
Not exactly the kind of place you’d want
to visit at night.
Abandoned places are not necessarily haunted
any ways.
But by exploring an abandoned location you
do get a glimpse of how people lived many
years ago.
In a sense, it’s like walking amongst a
ghost of our past.
Pottsville is basically now a deserted town.
However, many years ago this town must have
been thriving.
One can imagine everyone from the town in
the gym on a Friday night to watch a basketball
game.
But now there is a strange eeriness, a strange
silence to the place.
It’s almost peaceful.
It reminds me a lot of the strange and quiet
peacefulness of a cemetery.
In a way this school is a cemetery.
It houses the remains of a town that has long
passed away.
As a ghost hunter, this strikes a chord with
me.
I seek to find out what happens when our time
on earth ends.
But sometimes, you don’t have to look far
to find that answer.
Sometimes, it’s in the most unlikely of
places, like a town long forgotten.
