Ghost Energy

By James Riverz

James didn't know what was set up for him when he entered the old house. He knew very little about his family and didn't know why this big house was left in his possession. While emptying the old house out setting up for renovation he comes across a room filled with strange objects and old photos. He quickly discovers that his great grandfather was doing some terrible thing in the old town. Though most of what he heard were rumors and speculations most of what he was told came out to be true. He became curious and continued some of his great grandfather's experiments. What he discovered was more than enough to get him out of the house but he pressed forward.

Raised in Chicago. I started writing when I was 17 until recently I finished my first story "Ghost Energy." I do many other things but I would like to make writing my profession in the end and if not at least a teacher.

Part I: The Old House

1

I decided to write down the experience that had unfolded upon me after testing my theories, and as how I came to this house.

It had started the day before yesterday when I began the experiment that I believed not to have worked. I had written down a few theories that some ghosts were just fields of energy, little energy that when a light bulb turned on it dissipated. I thought about a few ways to try and concentrate that energy and feed it more so the apparition could take a clearer form.

I knew one type of energy any ghost would take would be human or whatever energy we have inside, the human energy, human electricity. During the past years the human species had come up with ways to harvest the energy we lose when we walk or exercise. I had found this sweater made out of microfibers which rub up against each other creating some energy not a lot but enough to charge your cell phone while you walk.

I took that sweater and applied some of my ideas; I added something like solar panels to the inside of the sweater but of my own configuration. I took a dish-gun from a listening device to aim any energy I produced, and added and ultraviolet light at the bottom of the dish-gun for a five-foot aim.

Putting all this together took no time at all, my conclusion was that something so simple surely wouldn’t work. But to my surprise something happened when I aimed the gun.

How I came to this house was no accident at all. It had been left down from generation to generation. A big dusty old house, no one had lived in it for at least 30 years. Everyone from my family had moved closer to the city seeing as it was more convenient back then, and everyone had gotten better jobs working in the city. The house was left to me as an afterthought, something my grandmother added to
