Comment from Linda Engel
My husband is from Newtown , Conn. and I have seen the ghost that lives in the upstairs bedroom of the Town Hall/museum. I Think is is the library. but upstairs the curators make the bed and straighten the room for the day's visitors ten minutes later when we went in the the bed had an impression on it where someone had been sitting, The bed was messed up. The curator said she has to straighten the covers five or six times a day.
Great poem and very good entry for contest.

This is yet another disturbing poem by the author in this piece of work. This tale of a witch wreaking havoc on townsfolk in her need ti satiate her lust for married men is yet another interesting and depressing poem. Well done on another dark tale and happy new year.

Hi Dean Kuch,
It has often struck me as rather odd that the US seems to have more hauntings, ghosts and spectres than all of Europe put together, perhaps something to do with the people who settled it? Or their religious leanings?
Your poem is an entertaining account of the fate of the witch killers.

You really love the horror, the more grotesque the better. Fair play to you, because you do it so well. A very good choice for the acrostic.
I enjoyed your authors notes, and of course your marvelous display.
Well done

Smooth and literate writing, working into an acrostic, with appropriately gloomy illustration, very typical of this writer's excellent work.

So many great-sounding words and phrases in this acrostic poetic story, Dean. The format you designed for its presentation is excellent, also. I would love to visit Bethel. I've been to a couple places where ghosts are known to roam and they do give off a sort of energy that makes the hair on your arms bristle. Exciting.

Hi Dean - another suitably sinister poem from you in the form of an Acrostic. Well written, as I would expect, and superbly displayed. I paused over line 3 'D' - reread it - did not quite get it. But the rest is excellent. I found your author notes really interesting. Ghost sightings are always frighteningly thrilling. (I watched 'The Turn of the Screw' on TV last night - just up your street). Good Luck in the contest. HAPPY NEW YEAR -

I think I have it corrected now, Rebekka. So sorry about that. Something crazy going on here with our satellite internet. Please, let me know of you have any further difficulties.
Thanks!

Hee, Hee, maybe she is waiting for a ride in a car? Wonderfully illustrated poem for your contest entry. Generally speaking, ghosts that are wandering the places they knew either don't know they are dead or, like to show themselves to humans and scare the living daylights out of them! How about the real hauntings at Amityville - they had to bring the Indian tribes together to put the nasty ghosts to rest and then burnt the house down as it was on sacred Indian burial ground. Lopping off Andrea's head meant her spirit couldn't rest. Well done my friend and best wishes for 2015 and the contest!
