Newark, California Ghost Tales I have lived in Newark all my life. Being 16 you hear about a lot Of stories and urban legends but a lot of these can be proven. Newark used to be an old farm and I bet a lot of native Americans lived on this land too. That explains a lot why the houses here are haunted. I remember at my old house on Haley st. Hearing a lot of strange noises. Like footsteps in the hallway when no one else Is home. I also remember hearing the sound of glass breaking and the sound Of someone washing dishes. And now at my current house its creepy. I know that the house Was built in the late 1800s. Now when I first moved there I always got the feeling I Was being watched. I'm not sure if that's me being paranoid or If I really am being watched. Well one day I was sitting in the living room Watching TV and I hear my middle name being called and it sounded just like my Mom So I said ''yea?!'' and I heard it again only more urgent. I got up and ran down the hallway and when I opened her room door. She was fast asleep. So I woke her up and asked her if she had       called me and she said no. Even though I could clearly see that, it scared me. So I ran back in to the living room and jumped on the couch and not even a second later I felt something jump onto the cushion right next to me. I quickly jumped up and you could see an imprint. That's not the only experience but it was the first one. There are more That   a lot of my friends were present for. .
