Curiosity was one word for it, but foolishness could be another.Continue reading “Spook-tober 2024”

25 Days of Terror

Day 6 Midnight For the fifth night in a row, he thought he heard something creeping up the back stairs, but every time he got up to look, there was nothing there. He was annoyed by it all, but everyone told him, old houses made weird noises, and he was just letting it get intoContinue reading “25 Days of Terror”
