My grandpa always told me there used to be a blacksmiths shop in our garden area. I believe him. I find all kinds of metal stuff and horseshoes in the garden. Grandpa told me a story once, and it went like this.

One night when the blacksmith was putting horseshoes on his horse, his shop caught on fire. No one knows how it started. Some say he burnt down the shop himself. They say the horse reared up, and came down and killed the blacksmith.

I didnt believe grandpa at first, but that was before that night. I woke up to a blazing light outside my window. Igot up and looked out to see a building on fire. Then I saw a huge black horse rear up and come down on a cowering shape. the shape fell and then the whole scene dissappeared.

But to this day,every night, I hear hoves to look out my window and see a man riding on a midnight black horse.
