When you were a kid, did you ever run up the stairs from the basement as fast as you could because you felt like a ghost was following you? Lol

Not quite but our house did have a basement due it having been built out over a gentle slope. Dad fitted lights in there, and the space became used as a store and routing for cables and pipes.

For a quite a long time, when returning from the far reaches under the front of the house I would instinctively face the day-light through the door before turning off the lights at that end.

Of course there was nothing there to frighten me, but I'd been affected by reading a ghost-story anthology when too young to see through its literary trick that made its fantasies seem true stories!
