Ghost's Fear of Humans

Ghost, the friendly ghost, lived in an old, abandoned mansion. He was a little different from other ghosts because he was afraid of humans. He had heard stories about how humans were scared of ghosts and would try to chase them away. Ghost didn't want to scare anyone, so he stayed hidden in his mansion.

One day, Ghost's friend, a wise owl named Oliver, came to visit. Oliver noticed that Ghost seemed sad and asked him what was wrong. Ghost explained his fear of humans and how he didn't want to scare anyone. Oliver reassured him and said, 'Not all humans are scary, some are kind and understanding.'

Curious and hopeful, Ghost decided to venture outside the mansion. He floated through the town, invisible to everyone. As he watched humans go about their day, he realized they were just like him - going to school, playing with friends, and laughing. Ghost saw kindness in their eyes.
