The prompt this week is - Ghost Stories
Every culture or society has it's ghost stories. They might be rooted in ancestor worship, cautionary tales for children, or stories told around a campfire or the bar of a frontier space station. Sometimes they carry a war5ning or message, other times they are just an entertaining way to get a chill. Tell me a ghost story from your setting !
Just to add a bit of spice to things, the two entries I most like (and are linked in comments to this post, so I can find them !) that are posted by midnight (GMT) next Saturday will each get a prize of one Hive SBI.
This link will take you to the FAQ where you can read more about Hive SBI - it's a project I thoroughly support because it gives both the donor and winner a steady trickle of passive income paid out in the form of upvotes on posts.
