Great use of this format. I can't keep up with all the possibilities I'm seeing. This one works well with your story about the Ghost of Old Reader's Mill. You do a great job conveying the spooky atmosphere and the possibility of ghosts being on the loose. Good explanation of how the ghost legend came to be. Super Halloween story. judi

This is truly a scary story fit for a Halloween night. Most duels were horrific with only one man left standing. You painted a striking picture with your words.

Yes. This one works. I read the first lines through, and that gave me the gist of the story. After that the whole poem puts the icing on the cake. Well done.
