A Haunted House
(horrorku series)

by Richard H. Fay




cobweb draperies
mouldering plaster walls
a phantom's home

dusty zephyrs
strange shuffling movements
spectral stirrings

creaking wooden stairs
groaning oaken timbers
unnatural sounds

drifting shadow
soft footsteps in the hall
ghostly presence

an eldritch chill
diabolical whispers
a fell haunting

dark apparitions
dreadful macabre visions
a mortal's fright

wailing spectres
clattering skeletons
midnight revelries
