Recebi esta apresentação em inglês. Nada sei sobre a veracidade da história. Como não havia necessidade de manter o texto no original, fiz uma tradução fiel do caso, o qual é bastante estranho, se não inverossímil. Jayro Um sujeito de New York se aposentou. Ele queria usar seu fundo de pensão de modo que rendesse e, assim, resolveu comprar uma casa com alguns acres de terra em Portugal. A residência, simples, estava vazia há 15 anos; o dono e sua esposa morreram e não deixaram herdeiros. A propriedade teve que ser vendida a fim de que fossem recolhidos os impostos. Embora tivesse havido muitos visitantes, nenhum entrou num galpão com aparência de abandonado e cujas portas de aço estavam soldadas. Ninguém quis arcar com as despesas para arrombar aquelas portas, já que, embora na propriedade, não faziam parte da oferta de venda. O novaiorquino comprou tudo pela metade do que valiam os imóveis, mudou-se pra lá e tratou de arrombar o galpão. A curiosidade o estava matando.

Eis o que ele encontrou
