Thank you so much for your wonderful comment. I’m pretty proud of my hubby…He’s a keeper! I gotta tell you though, he will NOT go anywhere near that old court house, even to this day! Key West is a very paranormal place. I did some research one time on Key West, and I had read that it was known at one time as “the Island of Bones.” Evidently, Key West is an old pirate port back in the olden days. Alot of people lost their lives here for one thing or another and were left to rot away in Key West. Of course, this was a very long time ago, at least 200 years ago, I believe. I guess there’s some unsettled souls around here in the Keys. My three sisters all now reside in Kansas City and always tell me that we live in “Tembuktwo”…hee!hee! Hey, you have a great weekend!

I can remember when I was serving in the Navy, back in the early 80′s, (before my hubby came into my life), and some of the girls and I decided to to stay in the barracks due to not really having anything to do. It was a weekend night, right before pay day, and of course none of us had any money to speak of…LOL! Anyway, one of the girls suggested that we watch a scary movie on the VCR, the “Exorcist”. I gotta tell ya. It was the first, and last time that I watched that movie! It scared all of us so bad, that we all slept with the our barracks room doors opened that night, hee! hee! Those were some good times, though. You have a great weekend!

I hope that you win the prize for your halloween costume. Key West is a very paranormal place to live. I have never been on one of the ghost tours, but, my hubby and might go on one just once. I have to agree, Hemingway was a great man. I love reading his works. You take care and have a great evening.

P.S. – my senior year I had to write and present a report on Ernest Hemingway, might I say, I included his place is supposed to be haunted. The class was more interested to know about his haunted house, than the great man himself.

Thank you for the Halloween wishes!

Thank you for your nice comment on my story. And, Happy Halloween to both you and family, as well. My place of business where I work wants everyone to dress up at the office for Halloween if they would like. I think that I’ll put on my husband’s old cracker jacket uniform from his Navy days. That should be alot of fun. I feel like a kid again…LOL! Have a great evening!

Apparently the Robert doll was made for some little boy years ago by his nanny, who for some reason put a curse on the doll. I looked up his history on the internet and it’s pretty interesting. But, he scares me though. After seeing a documentary about him on the travel channel…of all places, I goggled him online. All of a sudden, this large picture of the Robert doll came up on the screen. Like to have scared me to death! You have a great evening and Happy Halloween!

That’s nice that your late mother came to visit you to let you know that she’s happy. I’m so sorry that you lost your mother and that she had lived a difficult life. I hope that she’s at peace now. You have a nice evening.

I just love the Hemmingway House…all those cute seven toed cats! I, too, heard about the Hemingway House being haunted, and also about the light house as well. I’ve only seen the Robert doll on a television special. He is soooooooo creepy looking! But, I’ve never actually seen the Robert doll. They now have him on display at some museum across from the ocean, next to the Key West airport. I’m not surprised to hear that they place peppermints in his case to keep him from straying. I sure wouldn’t want to be the security guard working at that museum at night!! I don’t think that I would be there long…LOL! They even put pictures of the Robert doll outside, on the front of the museum where he’s located. Alot of people would pay BIG bucks to see home. He scares me!! I hope that you had an enjoyable stay in Key West. Happy Halloween!
