Africa' currently is in lot of news with paranormal activity's...
I just read the link and it seems strange that only the pupils say they have seen the ghost. No adults have said they have seen it, to support their story?
Children are innocent, they believe in the supernatural, they see things differently. I used to see faeries and ghosts and stuff all the time.
Interesting story and funny too
