Mermaid. Russia

In the summer the boys went to rest on the lake Venevitinov.

A lot of rumours and legends were current about this lake, but they decided to tempt fate, since I did not believe in the supernatural. When at night they lit a fire and talked about scary stories, of the water there was not something old, not a woman, not a girl. Her face was wrapped in rags, and she was dressed in black tattered clothing. She came out of the water with an outstretched hand. The campers were amazed by her appearance and thought that this is all happening in a dream. None of them could not move from surprise.

Long she would have stood, if not one of the guys who put in her hand, "Nickel", after which she disappeared.

When she came out of the water, she told the children a story that one day count Vinevitin, the owner of a large estate, drove it for treason, although she did not change. And now her soul finds refuge.
