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?"
