THE LADY IN BLACK

My father was told a story about a mugger who try to mug the wrong person. It all started when bunch of thugs heard a odd story about a woman who would wear a black dress with a solid veil. She would ride the train nearly everyday at the same time. Her drop off would be near dust at the town she arrives in. Then, she would travel outside of town by foot in the dark. No one saw her get on or off the train in the morning. One of the members decided he would tail her and rob her. So he went about with his plan. A day or two passed and he never showed up. He's friends went to the town where the woman in black was dropped off. They search and couldn't locate their friend. More days passed. Someone coming into town reported he found a man crazed out of his mind in the wilderness. He was taken to a hospital. What they could understand from his mumblings is that he got of the train. He followed the lady in black outside of town. He choose the moment to prey upon her. He grabbed her. She didn't not make a sound. He lifted her veil and to his horror she was not human. She was a skeleton with a skull of a horse. The eye sockets glowed flaming red eyes. He ran for his life. The lady in black never return to those two towns again.
