"I-I-I-I grew up being told about Onryō...or vengeful ghosts...F-F-For example...th-th-there is one story about a samurai who vows to his dying wife never to remarry. He soon breaks the promise, and his former wife's onryō beheads the new bride." Kurumi squeaked again and literally was sitting on Patroclus' lap now.

She looked around. If anything white moved, she probably would scream. "W-W-W-We also think that ghosts dress in white, have black hair that is usually long, their hands dangle lifelessly from the wrists and they don't really have any visible legs..."

Her little 12-year-old body was shaking now. Ghosts were a very scary subject.

Patroclus was less shocked by the subject matter, than he was by the shock that was Kurumi pouncing into his lap like a scared little kitty.

"Oh Kurumi, it's OK!" he smiled his heart swell at how cute the little second year was, "Nothing's going to harm you, not while I am around," he whispered, softly patting her on the back.

"Professor, Muggles are often taught that Ghosts are things to be feared, due mainly to informed muggles they often appear in books, movies or TV shows, where they are able to ralt chains or carry knifes......but we all know that poltergists are the only spectres that are able to hold physical objects."

The Lion Prefect remembered a comic book he had seen as a young one, where a group of 60's teenagers pulled the heads off ghost to reveal Muggles inside......Shooby Roo....or something like that!
