Rodney had drank in the pub till the wee hours, as was his usual custom, but this time it was different. He passed out and awoke wrapped around a lamppost, dressed in Victorian garb. When he asked a passerby the year, the incredible answer came: "1862." #picturewantsastory

By the apostle Paul, shadows tonight Have struck more terror to the soul of Richard Then can the substance of ten thousand soldiers Armed in proof and led by shallow Richmond. ′Tis not yet near day. ~ Shakespeare #ofdarkandmacabre William Blake, Richard III and the Ghosts

He came with the mist. In autumn. Creeping, slouching, staggering with it, in it, from the river up to the spot where they had waylaid him one morning in the fog. Beat him to death. For his crime. And he came back. Every year. And stared. Through the mist. #picturewantsastory

"The night has been unruly: where we lay, Lamentings heard in the air; strange screams of death, and prophesying with accents terrible Of dire combustion and confused events New hatch'd to the woeful time." ~ Macbeth, 2:3 #ShakespeareSunday #31DaysofHalloween #OfDarkAndMacabre

Visitors find the chaotic layout of twisting passageways and secret doors that comprise the Manor deeply unsettling. They swear that even if you walk the same path twice, you rarely end at the same destination. 🎨H. Railton. #31DaysOfHaunting #31DaysOfHalloween #OfDarkAndMacabre

He slumped with a metallic click, clink and the glow above died. As I moved into the yellow circle of the neighbouring light the man looked up. Or 'it' looked up. With another clink, clink it detached from the lamppost, stepped towards me. It's eyes gleamed. #picturewantsastory

Those who practice evil become evil - women who indulge in black magic are believed to turn into witches, known as Jatu, disguised as humans. In Brahui folklore, the Jatu preys on the liver of children. #FolkloreSunday #31DaysofHaunting #ofdarkandmacabre #Halloween
