'Forbidden after sun-set' the sign read, at the infamous 'black' beach.
The beach was once a cremation ground where villagers burnt their dead. Their ashes, over time, got mixed with the sand ~ thus, its colour.
I stood looking, it looked like any other beach - with tourists, vendors etc...but as evening approached, the guard whistled and chased everyone out.
I hid behind a shack, and waited, until it had gone quiet and dark. I wanted to see if the haunted rumours were true.
Suddenly, a hand grabbed my shoulder.
Ghost?
No, it was the guard - he found me out.
You had me there for a moment. (Castelsarrasin)
