The midnight lady

She tells the legend that a young woman who doesn't know she died lives walking the streets of the city. This woman always wears a red or white dress to delight lonely men who drink in a bar.
It is a lost soul with a young and seductive body that approaches lonely men leaving them enchanted.
The girl quickly asks the man to take her back home and he, enchanted by the girl's beauty, readily accepts. When they come across a high wall, she descends and invites you inside.
When the lonely man realizes that it is a cemetery, the girl disappears and the church bell rings that it is midnight.
