The myth was given more credence when, in 2001, the remains of a cat were discovered in a sealed staircase.

APPARITION AT THE DOOR! In the picture are myself, my wife and my youngest son. My 14 year old son is behind the camera. The photo was taken in the summer of 2004. No one was in the house at the time of the picture being taken. I had not seen this photo until the other day when my son was thumbing thru a photo album and this ghostly figure caught his attention.
