This is a story about a little boy who's soul was lost in a world of despair and pain and lies. 

I was playing on an Ouija board with a friend named Kris. We were just picking around drinking some beers and getting tore up. We broke out the board and started immediately to ask questions beginning with silly things, moving to more scary topics as the evening grew darker. We started asking the board if the entity was a male or female. 

It said it was a 5 year old boy named Lance, Lance said he had died trying to save his mother from being murdered. One night on his way home from the market in May of 1896 he was met by a man who was scruffy and pale looking. The man asked Lance if he needed help carrying the goods home, he also said he would help with some of the chores of the house and land in exchange for a warm meal. Lance thought about this for no longer than three seconds and said sure. 

The man took all the groceries from Lance and they headed for the farm after arriving the stranger met Lance' mom and advanced on her to quickly for Lance to know what was going on he tried to grab the man from behind but was thrown as the pale one turned and spun him off. 

Lance' father had died several months after Lance' birth from the treacherous flu epidemic of 1896. It had just been Lance and his mom since he was old enough to remember and he wasn't about to let this man hurt the only family he knew. He scrambled to the back porch to retrieve the ax from the wood pile it was all he could think of in the spur of the moment perhaps he would've run to the neighbors if he had known it was already too late his mother lay in a bleeding mass in one corner of the kitchen, Lance screamed and ran toward the evil incarnate that had taken everything to him. 

As he approached he tried to swing the ax but he was to small, it was too heavy and the intruder was alert he side stepped and grabbed Lance' arm and twisted until he heard a pop. When his arm was broken Lance cried out and dropped the ax. The stranger grabbed him by the throat and slammed him against the wall driving the air out of his lungs, bringing spots of light to his startled eyes. Then it all went black and Lance no longer felt the presence of the man or his mom or anyone. When he awoke there was no light no home no anything he was all alone and didn't recognize his surroundings. 

When we met him through the Ouija board it was approximately 1996 near one hundred years since his untimely death he said he had been trying to avenge the death of his mom by torturing the offspring of the stranger for the past 83 years when he first figured out he was a ghost spirit. We talked to Lance several times on the Ouija before losing contact with him and this is the first time I have retold this story. 

I hope you
