I heard the grown-ups say more people visit the bottom of the lake than the town itself. Apparently, they never return. The people in the lake I mean. Mr. Samson says that freezing cold water can quickly take your breath away. I guess that’s what happened to those visitors. They lost their breath. I wonder what they’re all doing down there, still. My brother Mark says they’re all dead and rotting with only their eyeballs and hair left. He can’t swim though so I think he’s lying. He said his friend said so but I don’t believe him either....
