In Loyola High School of the 1950's I remember one evening in the courtyard, we
were all gathered to watch a show.
The show consisted of shadow puppets on a large white 'screen', cut-outs of
wood shaped like people, animals, trees etc, also paper & cardboard with a
light behind so the cut-outs were displayed on the screen.
I dreamed of this scene only a few nights ago, for the first time in nearly
half a century! When we originally had this treat, it was 'scary' for me,
wetting my bed in a nightmare. My dorm mates must have had a good laugh that
time & every time I had this nightmare, intermingled as it was with the issues
surrounding my father's treatment of my mother at the time, and me being away
from family..............
But yes please, will anyone who has stories to share about childhood ghost
stories & other stories, come on this forum and give us all a good fright. I
promise my bed will still be dry in the morning, ha ha.

thrilling to hear someone out there trade ghost stories on Goanet... while i
was reading that one, one person does instantly come to mind...no he was not a
ghost, but many students during those days used to be scared out of their wits
even to see his shadow move around...Rev Fr Savio Rodrigues the then principal
at Loyola High School margao. who ruled, groomed and mentored the institution
with an iron fist. Fr Savio, used to teach us
