The Mystery of Winter Street

          Winter Street is a dead end street with seven houses. There are
four houses on the right side, and there are three houses on the left side.
Winter Street is connected to Main Street.
          On the right side of Winter Street, there is a green house, which
is the closest house to Main Street. There is a blue house next to the
green house. There is a brown house next to the blue house. There is
a red house next to the brown house, and the red house is at the end
of the street.
          On the left side of Winter Street, there is an orange house, and
it is directly across the street from the green house. There is a pink
house next to the orange house, and the pink house is directly across
the street from the blue house. There is a yellow house next to the
pink house, and the yellow house is directly across the street from
the brown house. There is an empty space next to the yellow house,
and it is directly across the street from the red house. The empty
space is at the end of the street.
          There used to be a white house in the empty space. Four years
ago, there was an explosion in the white house, and then there was a
fire that started in the house. The cause of the explosion and the fire
was accidental. It happened on the last day of August at 1:30 in the
afternoon. There was no one in the house when the fire started. The
white house was burned to the ground.
          Beyond the end of Winter Street, there is a large wooded area.
There is a path beyond the end of Winter Street, and the path is about
100 feet long, and it goes through most of the wooded area, and it leads
to a small pond. The pond is about 30 feet long. The wooded area
extends about 50 feet beyond the pond. There is another path on the
other side of the pond, and the path is about 50 feet long, and it goes
through the wooded area.
          Five years ago, there was a young woman who lived alone in one
of the eight houses on Winter Street who was murdered. She went out
in her car on a Saturday night on September 30th. It was a foggy night.
She came back to her house in her car at one minute before midnight.
It was more foggy when she got home. The fog was completely covering
all eight houses on Winter Street.
          There were two men who had broken into the woman's house a few
minutes before she got home. There was a porch in the back of her house.
The two men walked up the porch stairs, and then they broke into her
house through the back door.
          The woman entered her house through the front door. She
interrupted a robbery. Then she walked up the stairs, and then she
made a right turn, and then she started to walk down the hall. Then
she made another right turn, and then she walked into the small
bedroom in the front of the house, but it was not her bedroom.
Her bedroom was in the back corner of the house on the right side.
The two men stole money from her bedroom. She did not see the
two intruders. The window in the small bedroom was open all the
way. She put her pocketbook on the bed, and then she was about
to close the window. Then one of the two men ran into the small
bedroom, and then he stabbed her to death with a long knife that
was in the kitchen. She was stabbed multiple times. Then the two
men stole money from her pocketbook. Then the two robbers ran
out the back door, and then they ran down the porch stairs, and
then they ran to the end of Winter Street.
          There was a young couple who were married, and they were living
in another house on Winter Street. They went out in one of their two cars
on the same night, and they came back to their house at midnight. They
got out of the car, and then they heard a woman screaming from inside of
the house that was directly across the street from their house. A minute
later, they saw the two robbers running away at the end of Winter Street.
They saw the two robbers run through the wooded area on the path that
leads to a small pond. Then the man and his wife went into their house,
and then he called the police.
          There were three police cars and an ambulance that came to Winter
Street about five minutes later. The murder scene was examined, and the
woman was found dead on the floor. It was one of the bloodiest murders
that ever happened. There was blood on the porch.
          Five days after the murder was discovered, on a Friday at 3:00,
the knife was found in the pond. The murder was never solved.
          Almost 11 months after the murder, there was an explosion in
the white house, and then a fire started in the house. The white house
was burned to the ground. The white house became known as "The
House That Vanished."
          Some people would tell ghost stories for Halloween. In most of
the ghost stories, there are eight houses on Winter Street. The white
house is usually the last house on the left. In most of the ghost stories,
the murder is committed in the white house.
          They would recite the true story of the woman who was murdered
as part of a ghost story. The story would begin on a foggy night. The fog
is completely covering all eight houses on Winter Street. At midnight,
the woman is screaming from inside of the white house. Then the fog
diminishes, and then the fog is completely gone. The white house is
gone. The white house has vanished into thin air. The woman's body is
laying on the ground where the white house once stood. There is blood
all over her body.
          The people who tell the ghost stories would sometimes say beware
of the last house on the left. If you enter this house on a foggy night, then
you could become the next victim.
          Some people would tell horror stories for Christmas. Summer has
come and passed, and then the ghosts of Christmas would come to Winter
Street.
          They would recite the true story of the woman who was murdered
as part of a Christmas horror story. The story would begin on the night
of Christmas Eve. It's snowing on Winter Street. At midnight, the woman
is screaming from inside of the white house, and then the snow changes
to blood. There is no more snow falling from the sky. There is blood
falling from the sky. The blood does not stop falling from the sky until
after sunrise.
          On Christmas morning, there is blood all over Winter Street. There
is a big, bloody 'X' on the front of the green house, the blue house, the
brown house, and the red house. The word 'MURDER' is printed in blood in
big letters on the front of the orange house, the pink house, and the yellow
house. The white house is gone. The white house has vanished overnight.
There is a pool of blood on the ground where the white house once stood.
The woman's body is laying in the pool of blood, and there is blood all over
her body.
          There is a song that reminds the people who live on Winter Street of
the murder. The song was released after the year 2000. The song has at
least 10 letters in the title, and no more than 25 letters in the title. The song
does not have a Halloween related theme. It's not a Christmas song. It's a
song that can be heard on the radio anytime of the year. The word 'rain' is
mentioned in the song two times, but it's not in the title. The name of the
song reminds the people who live on Winter Street of what happened on
that horrible night.


          If the name of the song begins with a 'G', then the murder was
          committed in the green house.

          If the name of the song begins with an 'L', then the murder was
          committed in the blue house.

          If the name of the song begins with an 'N', then the murder was
          committed in the brown house.

          If the name of the song begins with an 'R', then the murder was
          committed in the red house.

          If the name of the song begins with an 'S', then the murder was
          committed in the orange house.

          If the name of the song begins with a 'T', then the murder was
          committed in the pink house.

          If the name of the song begins with a 'W', then the murder was
          committed in the yellow house.

          If the name of the song begins with an 'A' or an 'I', then the
          murder was committed in the white house.


          The number of times that the woman was stabbed is equal to the
number of letters in the name of the song.

          The following is a summary of eight dreams that some of the people
who live on Winter Street have experienced. The person in each dream
is the person who is having the dream. One of the eight dreams is showing
something indirectly about the song. The dream that is showing something
indirectly about the song determines the name of the woman who was
murdered.


          If dream one is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Aubrey.

          If dream two is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Bonnie.

          If dream three is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Cindy.

          If dream four is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Donna.

          If dream five is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Ellen.

          If dream six is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Irene.

          If dream seven is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Meghan.

          If dream eight is describing the song, then the woman's name
          was Rosanna.
