Six Spooky Short Stories

Book excerpt: SIX SPOOKY SHORT STORIES: Ghost Brother… What happens after you die? Do you go to heaven or hell, or do you go to a special place fashioned for you based on the life you’d lived? Do ghosts exist? Two brothers and their tale follow; their journey through life and death. Running with the Train… Sarah has always been lonely; searching for a love she’s begun to believe will never come. True, eternal love. On an adventure of a lifetime to the Grand Canyon she rides the train from Williams to the Rim and sees these huge wolves running alongside in the evening twilight; scurrying unbelievably below on the Canyon’s ledges among the trees. Has her loneliness made her crazy? The Banshee and the Witch… What would you do to live forever, stay young forever? To find true love again? If you were a white witch with the powers to make it happen, and the secret of how to do it, would you? When the banshee comes calling one rainy dark night you’ll do what you must to get what you desire most. More time. Too Close to the Edge… Artist Penelope had been looking forward to going to see the Grand Canyon…even though she was terrified of heights and, when she got there, couldn’t bear to get too close to the edge. She sees a young girl go over the rim and no one believes her. There was no child that had died–that day anyway.
