Excerpt:
Ghost Story
At first glance, the spacious room appeared to be
empty. What had once been a bed was now nothing more than a crooked headboard
and planks of wood. A trickle of light seeped through the moth-eaten blinds of
the window, and Jessica found herself standing in a pool of moonlight. A musty,
old paperback smell filled her nostrils. Shadows draped across the room,
deepening in one corner over an old, decaying chair. That particular black
shadow shifted suddenly, and a surprised squeak escaped Jessica.
She
froze inside the threshold of the room, staring helplessly at the ghostly
figure in the corner. It was him. Her mind registered this with a certain
degree of calm acceptance, but her body remained glued to the spot with terror.
And when the being beckoned her, she was only able to vaguely shake her head.
It
came to her instead.
