What do I think? What do I know? What do you know?

A good ghost story does not necessarily need to be scary to be good.

   Take this scenario: You start talking to a young child almost every day of your life, then one night while you are sleeping, you start dreaming about someone that you have never met, (or have you?) Are you dreaming?

   The year is 1854 and times are hard, very hard indeed. You and your family live off the land in a remote village. One day a stranger visits and things start to change. At first it starts with the odd animal going astray. Is it some wild beast from the forest that has strayed into the village, or something more sinister? Only time will tell.

   Six months down the line, the worst has happened. A young child has vanished. While the child’s parents are grieving, things start to get even more sinister and objects that once belonged to the child start to disappear. Where they have gone? Nobody knows.

   These dreams start to appear more and more and every time they appear they seem to be stronger and stronger, until one night, the child you have been speaking to, appears in your dream. And in this dream the child is gruesomely murdered. Was it by some wild beast, or something else? The strangest thing is that after that last dream the child never ever comes to speak to you again. Nor do you never have that dream again. Who was that young girl? (Was it a dream or was it a vision? Who can tell?).
