When I read this, I feel like a voodoo witch doctor is telling a tale of evil befalling upon me, as if it was my life being described. Terrible things were to happen to me...
Spooky, chilling even for I cannot fault the story and the style to which you've dangerously typed; though if I may make a suggestion of reading rhythm...
There was no mention of Alice's body. She hoped Alice had just disappeared...
Try this on for size...
There was no mention of the little girl Alice, chilling the hot stilled air around, heightening tensions above and beyond murderous spells; for she heavenly hoped, with gospel prayer's heeding her calls that the blue eyed Angel Alice disappeared, unlike Remy's untimely death..
It's just a format to use for extreme emotion and description elevating seriousness to a new level. But this is your story, and I love it as it is...Keep up your great work.

It's creepy, and I like it. I was and wasn't surprised that Remy died. I like the idea of demon possession, and in a schoolroom, no less. Boy, I haven't heard "cloak room" for more than half a century. Fun read. Ray.

It's creepy. Gram is as crazy as her grandson. Gram should put his dinner back on the stove, not pot it. 'What's that mean' in the forth last paragraph needs a question mark. 'Been back to see him only three times that he could recall' is a sentence fragment. It needs another word at the beginning. All easy fixes.

It's creepy alright and I love a good ghost story. I picture this one being told by my grandmother late on a Saturday night. Ooooh it's so very good.

    Your grandmother sounds almost as bad as me. I love to scare kids. I'm glad you liked it.

    Oh she did and we loved to go stay over at her house too.

Creepy is a very good word to describe this story. This reminds me of THE TWILIGHT ZONE. Plot is developed very thoroughly with foreshadowing and a horrible end that makes shivers go up and down the reader's spine.
