Haha, don't accidentally conjure her up! If she knocks, that's a bad sign, apparently. 🤣

Thanks for your comment. 💛

Oooh, good bedtime story! Love the buildup and the surprise at the end....hmm Martha at the windows. You are my 74th story!

Thanks for your reply. I enjoyed writing it. Just a little spooky, nothing over the top, and hopefully not cheesey. What did you like most about this story? 💛

What I liked best was the balance between description and dialog...kept me engaged entire time. That's not always the case and I find myself skimming through sections. Not true here. And esp. the young girl at the end saying that she knew Martha....kind of chilling. And not over the top. I easily get nightmares from certain stories. It was just the right amount.

Wow! I'm flattered. Thank you again, so much for the kind review. I've got plenty of spooks to share on my page, if you're interested in more stories like this one. 💛
