  25. Helena's story is full of mysteries, since his death that very clear.
    It was said that in a big old house in Pennsylvania voices were heard which called Helena if this were staying. This house was dark and the windows were broken, the doors open by themselves, and inside there was a feeling of discontent.
    In the rooms, he felt someone crying. Some said that this was Helena that his spirit was in the old house. Others say entering the house does not appear, it seems that Helena is still grieving over the death of his mother, because this loss affected her a lot when he lived.

  27. SUMMARY OF THE STORY "HELENA"

    The history of Helena, is characterized to have a mysterious plot in which the people who participate there, want to discover the mystery of the death of Helena, starting off of the old left house where she lived, and in which he was unfortunate after the death of his mother, because his father after the death of his wife was going away to marry with another woman.

    The death of Helena I leave much uncertainty, as much that many said that it had been buried near a tree and that his father had to do in this way.

    People neighboring to house lived with fear constantly, because they felt atmosphere not very pleasant, and like house was on sale people that there lived not lasted long time in that house and they marched, because they felt voices that said “Helena!, Helena!”, as if it was a ghost.

  29. Good afternoon teacher, this is my summary about Helena's story:

    Helena's story is fundamentally a story of paranormal events that happen in an old house, abandoned in the middle of a road in the city of Pennsylvania.

    The story begins by telling that one day a young man was on a bicycle around town, when suddenly finds a large courtyard in which stood an old house that appeared to be alone and empty for several years.

    As they approached the house I notice that the walls were cracked and had several of its windows broken, the strong wind there was, was that the doors hit each other. This young man wondered why the house was alone and that nobody had bought if it was for sale.

    After watching the house, decided to go back to your bike and come to tea, there met an elderly woman who asked about the house, to which the woman replied that in that house strange things happened many people who had lived there they left and never returned, because there were voices in a room saying, Helena!, Helena!

    I hope you are well!

    Bye see you later!

  33. Summary of the story “HELENA”

    The margin by which it conveys the story of Helena, is intriguing, it leaves the reader to give their point of view according to the text and to invent a different ending. Reading is practically open, spontaneous and informative can be said that until it puts its attention on the life of a young woman named Helena and his subsequent death.

    Also encourages doubt about his death and its possible existence in the house where he lived for a long time if not a lifetime.
    Helena's story is very mysterious, everyone wants to know the truth of what happened but nobody is.
    Even his death became a mystery, some say she was buried near a tree at home, and his father was complicit in this.

    Moreover, his spirit in the house is causing a dark environment like a wave of fear that gives to any people who wish to take as his own home, so much so, that when you go see the house for sale, say with all security scare because they have seen the doors locked and windows opening.
    Also, said of a spirit that screams "HELENA, HELENA”.
