Very chilling. I had to skim some parts, as I don’t do scary movies. So you certainly spooked me. :)

Thank you! Believe it or not I don't do scary movies either, still I have an affinity for writing MFU Halloween stories. i think my muse came back with a vengeance for this one, that at being up all night to write because the N'or Easter kept me awake.

Still raining and windy!

Very scary! I caught myself holding my breath at one point.

Yay! then it worked! Again I wasn't sure if it was scary enough. I left out a lot of physical descriptions, though I think it was long enough without them. My muse worked overtime on this one. I didn't think I'd finish it as t kept getting longer, though I wanted an innocent lead up to the big event.

I guess the N'or Easter storm that woke me up at 3 am this morning helped, as that's when I finished the piece...actually at 7:30 this morning. Still haven't gotten a nap in, though it's still storming.

Perfect to snuggle up on the sofa as it's a dark day.

Thanks so much and really glad you liked the story!
