I Present, Bride-in-seek, " Folklore, Myth, Legend" 1


As the urban legend goes…


A young couple from Palm Beach, Florida got engaged in 1975. The father of the bride was a wealthy man so he was able to afford a big wedding and a reception in an old, secluded house.
After the wedding, the reception kicked off and things got pretty crazy. People were having plenty to drink and as the night wound down, the groom had an idea to play hide-in-seek in the old house. Since he thought of the game, the groom was “it” first.
After a short while, everyone had been found except for the bride. The groom and the rest of the people playing the game began to look for her, but she was nowhere to be found. After spending hours on end calling her name and tearing the house apart, the bride was still missing.
The groom began incredibly angry and upset and thought that his new bride either ran out on him or was playing some kind of cruel joke. So he and the other patrons left the house that night and returned to their hotels.
In the morning, the bride still had not returned to the hotel and the groom started to worry. So he filed a missing persons report, but after a few weeks went by, he decided that maybe she had left him and it was time to move on.
Several years had gone by and a little old woman had set out to clean the house used for the wedding reception. As made her way through the house, she walked up into the attic and found an old trunk. Curiosity got the best of her, so she opened the trunk and screamed at the top of her lungs at what was inside.
During the hide-in-seek game at the young couple’s wedding reception, the bride had decided to hide inside the trunk. While she was getting into the trunk, however, the lid bumped up against a wall and as it was slamming shut, knocked the bride unconscious (and locked her inside).
When the little old lady found the bride, she had been rotting inside and her mouth was open like she had been screaming for someone to let her out.
