Name	Description
North Court Cemetery	When you walk through it at night you'll see on some tomb stones dark figures sitting on them. And you will see some dark figures run behind trees but if u go check it out there is nothing there. and sometimes if you walk on the grass n look down u might see a white cat run in circles around your feet and disappear. you might hear whispering in your ears as well and footsteps in the grass.
