I live in Hackham West and was going to my friend's house in Gawler
-- the other side of Adelaide. We were talking about places that are
haunted in Gawler. My friend and her family took me to Dead Man's Pass
which is a nice walking place or park -- it's also said to be haunted by
the ghost of a man who was found dead and was put in a tree in 1800's or
1900's, I'm not sure how the story goes.
I was left with the dog while the others went for a walk as I am due
to have a baby. I sat on a blanket on the grass and my friend and her
family went on down the path out of sight. I was playing with the dog
when I felt like I was being watched. I felt spooked out -- no one was
around at all -- the scariest part of the experience was there were no
birds singing at all in the trees -- just a cold breeze. I feel like
the male ghost was there watching me. I was happy to see my friend
coming up the path with her family -- we walked back up to the car and
left.
