Happy Halloween

AHM and me spent some time searchin' the web and the dead-tree library for some old-fashioned dog ghost stories and ya' know what? There aren't any. Not one real, honest-to-god, come-back-from-the-dead, dog-haunt. Oh, yeah, here was a book full of supposed ghost dog stories, but they were only stories about livin' dogs endin' with a paragraph or two about how maybe they prowled and howled from the Great Beyond. There were lots of Black-Dog-with-scary-red-eyes stories, and a bunch of cute little my-pet-came-back-to-say-goodbye tales. But nothin' like The Hound of the Baskervilles, which isn't even a real ghost dog, just a murder usin' the Black Dog of the Moors legend.

Next year I'm writin' my own.

Anyway, if you're lookin' for some scary stuff to wind down the evenin', try this. (Ugh…) This. (Where's your permalinks, Cal?) And 'specially this where the Mademoiselle from Armentieres bites back. Be sure to scroll down for the full effect.

If ya' like real scary stuff, spend some time readin' about Ralph Keeton and visitin' his site. Considerin' more Brits believe in ghosts than God, I guess ole' Ralphie is kept pretty busy.

Oh,yeah....Boo!
