The House On the Hill

There is a house up on a hill people say ghosts roam it still I went one night on a double dare Just to see whats really up there A creaky front door led me in Into the darkness I did desend A large staircase loomed ahead As I climbed I was filled with dread Then I heard a moaning sound No one there as I looked around I climbed those stairs to the top What I saw made my heart stop A lady was hanging in thin air Bulging eyes and long red hair Slowly she floated from above Said I've been waiting for you love My mouth so dry I could not yell Down the stairs I ran like hell Flew right out the front door And I'm never goin back no more carolann crowley 9/28/2012

As I finished reading, laughter filled the air. I could just imagine her high-tailing down the stairs and the hell out of there. Excellent writing. Thank you for sharing. Still laughing.
