Scary Stories & Creepy Facts

SS&CF #36

I was heading to the bathroom on the second floor of my aunt's house when i saw my cousin, Minjae, on the stairs.

Minjae was four and very animated. She was busy making funny faces while sitting on the stairs.

I asked her what she was doing, she said, "I'm copying the lady with the braid.." I looked around but there was no one else but us.
"Where is the lady, Minjae.?"

She pointed to a beam running parallel to the stairwell.
I asked Minjae, "What is the lady doing.?". She said "makin' funny faces"..

I smile and started walking up the stairs again when Minjae said something that stopped me in my tracks..

Minjae said, "her braid is around her neck..." I turned around and ask Minjae to repeat herself.

Minjae pointed, "The lady is hanging by her braid..... making funny faces." Then Minjae started making a face which i then realize was it someone gasping for air.
