My favorite ghost stories were told by my Uncle Alphonse (we all called him "Pine"). His stories always featured non other than "Bloody Mary!" He would sing the song about her ~Bloody Mary's gonna getcha tonight~uhn uh huh~Bloody Mary's gonna getcha tonight~then he would pull out this big, blue eyeball, which we learned later was a pigs eye, most likely from one of the butcherings.It was such great fun to be spooked to senseless by Pine, Bloody Mary and "The Eye." Damaria,
