A creepy message found inside an abandoned house in Gilman, Colorado.

Oh but this is actually a bit altered line from a poem by William Hughes Mearns:

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn’t there.

He wasn’t there again today,
I wish, I wish he’d go away…

When I came home last night at three,
The man was waiting there for me
But when I looked around the hall,
I couldn’t see him there at all!
Go away, go away, don’t you come back any more!
Go away, go away, and please don’t slam the door…

Last night I saw upon the stair,
A little man who wasn’t there,

He wasn’t there again today
Oh, how I wish he’d go away…

If you can correctly pronounce every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world. After trying the verses, a Frenchman said he’d prefer six months of hard labour to reading six lines aloud. Try them yourself.
