"I don't believe in ghosts. It's true—I promise. But you know what? I also won't flash my headlights at Flo's grave because I'm pretty sure she’ll show up. I won't go into the Ogden Exchange building by myself, not even in broad daylight. I won't spend the night in Room 1106 of the Ben Lomond Hotel and I won't drive through the North Ogden Divide in the dark. I’ve learned not to take pictures of the former Dead Haven building or faces will appear in the windows, revealing people who shouldn’t be there—who aren't there. I don't believe in ghosts, I really don't, but Ogden is haunted. It's as simple as that. Spirits walk these streets at night."
