Don't be afraid

            I took this shot of the Sutro Bath House Ruins in San Francisco thru the window while dining in the cliff house. My grandson and I were memorized by the eeriness of the place . We did not go down there to explore to many crowds.  I looked for articles on the  history and also wondered what might lurk under the water.  
Across the way, what remains of the Sutro Baths has also had its fair share of ghostly goings-on. The host of Amy's Crypt, an online paranormal show, picked up a voice recording of someone telling her to “move it” when she searched the area one night. Most investigators are fixated on the tunnel at the Baths, once used to pump sea water into the indoor pools. Not only have inverted pentagrams been found painted in there -- suggesting Satanic activity (there have even been rumors about human sacrifice) -- legend has it that the spirits of a drowned woman and an older man frequent the spot. Stories say that if you leave a lit candle in the tunnel, the spirit of the woman is summoned, and she throws the candle into the ocean.
