weeks, Tony Fielding received a visit from his sister That would never have been
unusual, for the two were very close, but the circumstances were not normal.
Tony's sister's visit came in the weeks following her funeral. It was in
the mid nineteen seventies when Tony it was nineteen and his sister was only twenty
three. As Tony towed a reporter for the Dallas Times Herald, his sister
died quite unexpectedly, and its October twenty ninth, nineteen ninety one edition that
the young woman was found lying across her diary with a whisky bottle in her
back pocket and a trickle of blood coming out of her mouth. No one
knew what had happened, and no one was prepared. Tony later came to
believe that the least prepared of all was his sister her. After the funeral,
just as I was about to fall asleep, my sister would come and
stand by my bed, Tony told the Times Harold. It was a hazy,
filmy body that you could see through. She looked like she was pleading
with me for some reason, so I started asking her what she wanted.
The apparition never answered Tony's question, and eventually he simply told her to leave.
When he did, the ghost faded away, leaving a smoky cloud behind
her. Fifteen years later, Tony offered a theory about his sister's spectral visits.
Many people like my sister may not know they're dead. That's why their
spirits stay around. It's not hard to believe that a twenty thirty year old
woman was not expecting to die, it was not prepared to pass over to
the other side. In this particular case, her spirit remained earthbound for three
weeks until someone cared enough to release her. So many other ghosts have to
wait much longer. Sometimes it takes an eternity,
