Ok, this is a true story which happened about 2 years ago.
Background: My wife works as the director of a preschool/latchkey program for a catholic school here in town. The program is held in an old building on the grounds which used to house nuns lots of years ago, and is supposedly haunted. The kids in the program all hear the stories. My wife used to stay in the evening and clean up, get ready for the next day. Anyway, my son and I went over one evening to see her and she wanted something from the basement. My son (about 6 years old then) and I went to get it. The stairs going down take a sharp turn at the bottom and then another turn in the hallway before coming to the room doors. I went first and could hear my son coming down the stairs after, but still out of sight. At the first door I flipped the light on and off. slammed the door and yelled "ARRGHH" . The next thing I hear is feet running up the stairs! He didn't say a word just turned around and took off up the stairs. When I was through laughing I went up looking for him. He was completely outside the building sitting on a bench. Hadn't even tried to find his mom! Just up the stairs and straight out the door! When I walked up he jumped up and said "Dad! What happened down there!?" I think he was actually surprised to see me. Sorry for the length, but I still get a laugh out of this.
