Ghostly tale and rustic life in a Maine farm setting

A narrator recalls a winter on a Michigan frontier farm with schoolgirl memories and a spectral visit. The tale centers on Anscomb and a boyish group, the fear of a ghostly story, and a dusk nightly routine around the barn as cattle gather and a quiet, eerie mood settles over the old homestead.

The Haunted Farm and a Scots-Irish Ghost Tale

A first-person narrator recalls eerie events at a rural New England farm. He describes a spectral presence, unsettling visions, and a funeral, followed by neighbors increasingly convinced by fear and folklore. The tale shifts to a burned barn and a later reflection on superstition versus evidence amid community memory.
