Challenge
I want you wonderful prosers to write a ghost story in rhyme (or prose), but it should start with the following line: "A house stands upon a shady hill..." let's see who can run a chill down my spine!
Please tag me (@fortbruce) in your story/poem so I can know you entered into the challenge. Good Luck!!
Creak
A house stands upon a shady hill
Stepping in gives my bones a chill
The lights fail to go on with the switch
At the kitchen stands an old with
Stirring something in a pot of brew
A black cat doesn't purr, whispers "boo"
"Come sit," she says, pulling out a chair
Her cackle gives rise to my every arm hair
She pours some broth in the bowl for me
Three eyeballs float to the top, can't see
Dashing fast, I race to the creaky door
"Wait," she cackles, "don't you want more?"
