GROG's only ghost story:

GROG was working at a small commercial studio in Texas, and had only been working there a short time. The 3 animators worked upstairs and there was a fairly long stair/hallway that you had to walk up to get up there.You could ALWAYS hear when somebody was coming up the stairs. GROG's desk was just around the corner, so GROG would always look up to see who came up the stairs when GROG heard the footsteps reach the top.One day, GROG is working upstairs and hears footsteps coming up the stairs, so GROG looks up, and nobody comes around the corner.GROG gets curious and gets up from desk and walks around the corner, and there is nobody on the stairs.GROG goes downstairs and finds the other animators busy helping out downstairs. Everybody was pretty busy, so it seemed obvious that none of them had come up the stairs.GROG jokingly asks, "Hey, do you guys have a ghost here?" The other employees look up with a funny look on their faces and say, "Why do you ask?" GROG tells them about hearing footsteps coming up the stairs and nobody being there.They tell GROG that a number of strange things had happened over the years. The most convincing thing was when one of the employees had worked really late one night. The last person to leave studio has to go around the whole studio and turn off all the lights in every room and make sure nobody else is in the studio before they lock up, and this person did that. After he locks the doors he goes and gets in his car parked out in front of the studio and starts it.While he is sitting there letting the engine warm-up, suddenly one of the lights comes on in one of the back offices. He had been through the whole building, so he knew there was nobody in the studio, so he just puts the car in reverse and heads home. He wasn't about to go back inside.
