This is a great Halloween story. The pumpkin in the picture looks rather sinister. I did not realize the narrator was a ghost; it was a good surprise. I do not see any room for improvement. Have a blessed day.

Great story for Halloween! I was totally surprised with the turn of events! I loved how we walked down memory lane with her... totally thinking of the revenge she was about to accomplish!
But... what a fantastic twist of fate!
Wish there were some way they could all relish the revenge they seek.
Thanks for sharing your awesome story with us!

With the exception of cleaned plate, (I think cleansed would be better, I found the entire story wonderfully well told, especially in light that in a few nights the night of the dread arrives. Well done.

Nice story, if 'nice' is the right word for terrible.

Well written.
I hope Georgina gets her revenge soon, before next Halloween.
Good luck in the contest.

This is an excellent Halloween story for the contest. I think you will do well on this site. I see you just joined FanStory the month. Probably most of the people will be older than you. That doesn't matter. Writers of all ages are welcome.

This is a very scary, creative story. You also leave a little space for readers to think he will be killed but they stay away from him. A reader can imagine what will happen next. The natural feeling is to hold that eventually one of the new sister will kill him, and all of it will come to be known. Excellent writing and story for the challenge.

Best wishes,

Alexandra

I wish I had a six, your story is clearly a winner, the plot is so intense and deceiving, first you think there is a jealous girlfriend until is not... Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

I don't know where you are, but it sounds like you are somewhere hot for Halloween as you are having a scorching hot spell, Halloween always reminds me of misty dank damp nights when it gets dark early, but maybe you are somewhere hot.

This story has progressed into something quite spooky and I reckon this is a good post for the Halloween story contest. If only ghosts really existed, this is a fun post Jacob, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

    Thank you Dolly. The reference to the hot spell was just in the character's memory, it's definitely not hot where I am in the UK. I'm pleased that you enjoyed it.
