Fabulous description of the eerie atmosphere and what a fine ending. I knew there'd be a twist, but I wasn't expecting that. I'm glad I don't have any sisters! LOL

    Girl power! LOL I was the little sister that got left behind or tortured all the time. What goes around comes around and sometimes it's not until later in life. Smiles, Carol

This Edward...farmhouse story, Legend Says, had me right next to Edward as he climbed those steep, rickety steps to finally get scared stupid by his rotten sister. Luckily he didn't let a bullet go. Great tale.

Love it - has a wonderful millenial-feel with his 'ghost-fighting weapons'- the atmosphere crackles with expectation and the reader climbs the stairs too - until some old-fashioned tried and tested scare-mongering comes into view ! - a real story-telling treat Has my vote !

This is an interesting story that builds in suspense from the beginning to the surprise ending. Big brother Edward wasn't as brave as he thought he was, and Emma knew he wasn't. She who laughs last, scares the heck out of her older brother. Well done.

    thank you Dolly for your kind review. Girl power to the end... especially when the receiver is the older brother leaving you behind. Have a great day!

A very well written story with a clever ending. You have built up the suspense and have spoken of the typical brother sister relationship without giving a single hint of the ending. Well done.

    Yes... girl power till the end... especially when the big brother believes he can leave the sister behind because it's a job for a man. Not! Have a great day!

Well, that will teach him to not take his sister with him! You are very descriptive. I can see him take off running down the stairs without a backward glance. Good job! Good luck with the contest!

    Girl power for sure! Big brothers and men, in general, believe they can do it so much better than the women... Guess he was wrong, and she got the last laugh. Have a great day!

Great read. You created an almost tangible atmosphere. And the way you ended this story is clever to say the least. It made me laugh out loud and I immediately thought of my little brother. Really good job with the contest prompt.

A little scary at first, reminded me of Ghost Busters. My breathing changed when his did and was glad he'd left his sister behind in safety. But the ending was a total surprise and well worth the suspense. Good job, nicely done. Good luck.
