Ghosts: What use are they?

I was wondering if anybody fancies having a go at writing a ghost story for Christmas again. Some people did it last year. I know Tabby wrote one, but I can’t remember who else did. Anyway, ghosts are popular at Christmas, so I thought I would suggest it.

I was wondering, Guy Fawkes. That’s one soul that wasn’t left to rest in peace.

:thinking:

You write it Harbal! You write great stories!

Yes I do, don’t I. :thinking:

But the more the better. Let’s all write a ghost story for Christmas.

I’m not ready very good at storytelling. I’ve no imagination…

But it seems a bit unfair to throw him on the fire in November and then bring him back for more in December. I mean it must take the full twelve months to get over that sort of thing.

Well just write a rubbish ghost story then, it’s the taking part that counts.

Oh that’s a good idea! I didn’t realise ghosts were a Christmas thing though…is it like ghost of Christmas past, and all that? or can we just make up something else? I wasn’t here last Christmas so have no clue what this entails :thinking:

Christmas isn’t complete without a ghost, Pixie.

As far as rules are concerned, if anybody wants them, they can make their own up. But they won’t have to stick to them if they don’t want to. Best to keep it informal. Just turn out a ghost story of some kind shortly before Christmas.

And thank you for your overwhelming response, Pixie. :+1:

You are very welcome. I hope others do this too…I’m not being the only one :open_mouth:

Catesby’s Gunpowder Christmas would have a bang to it :wink:

We will be up to our necks in ghost stories. Pixie, I am sure of it. :thinking:

Who is Catesby, LD?

Taint my place to conduct forum history lessons about Robert Catesby H … hang on tho, I’ll find a link … here we go:- Robert Catesby - Wikipedia

Yes, LD, he would make an exellent ghost. Write a story about him and have it on my desk by, let’s say, 12th December. :slightly_smiling_face:

Oh the drama! :roll_eyes: You’d make a good ghost y’know…:ghost:

Not everyone is here yet, and seen this…give it at least a few days. perhaps everyone is thinking about ideas and don’t want to spill the beans just yet! See, there is a myriad of reasons…a myriad
