Cursed Inca Gold
by Peru

In my country, in Cuzco, Peru in 1996 around August, I was with my grandfather walking around at night. I wasn't scared, but it was dark... very dark. We were just walking around and then I noticed people coming up to us and I was getting scared. My grandfather started cursing at them in Spanish, but they came close. They reminded me of the Incas. In two or three minutes they disappeared and didn't even notice us.

My grandfather saw something shining on the floor. It was pure gold! He was happy. He took it home and told the story to everyone. Later that night, he died in a horrible way: the wood fell on his head and he died. My grandma took the gold and she died the week after in a horrible way too. The room where she was sleeping burned. No one knows how. My uncle got the gold and he died two days or three days later: he got hit by a car and a truck at the same time!

After that, we left the gold at my grandma's house and never went back there again. I think the gold is still there, but no one goes in the house because my grandfather and grandmother are some way still in the house. You could even see them inside every time you pass by the house.
