Comment from Bellringer
Bev, another well written chapter. The first part of your chapter provides an eerie scene showing the infamous Charles Bellingham hiding in fear--wonder what could scare him so. The details of the hotel were exceptional and you managed to maintain the tension of the story. Carrot cake pancakes with cream cheese frosting! Oh my. Delicious writing, my friend. Blessings, Hector

Hi, Hector. Thank you for taking on my fifth chaper! I really so appreciate your support and generosity. Glad you liked the descriptions. I have the heart of an interior decorator - so I guess that came through LOL. Warmest regards, Bev

A pleasure to read, Bev. Blessings, Hector
Comment from adewpearl
Excellent dialogue - you show Mia's state of exhaustion and unrest well.
Your depiction of what went on back in 1918 is most dramatic - what a horrific scene you create through your vivid detail. Brooke

Thank you very much for the large print in the story. It truly helps me to read it. And I'm sure other reader with sailing eyesight will feel the same way. I enjoyed reading this chapter and found it very interesting. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from InterestingRon
Hi Bev
I don't know if it was intended - but the text for your story has an extremely large font size. Author's notes are the usual standard size,
This chapter got off to a tremendous start - the melting door handle was a delicious touch. The second haunting was more tame, but intriguing.
You're going from strength to strength with this.

Hi, Ron. I'm chuckling to myself because I just got a big thank-you from a reviewer who thanked me for the larger font size! I've had at least two people in the past suggest that it helps and an equal number don't like it. But, your point is well taken and I know your intention is to help the piece get a better viewing. Thanks, my friend. I appreciate your support and praise for the piece. Warm regards, Bev

A really fun read here. I particularly enjoyed the descriptors of the two rooms. Ended with a bit of tension, so I guess we will all have to stay tuned. Regards, Bill

Comment from quashdog
Good chpter, moves the story right along. I liked the dialogue at the end between the two spirits, it draws the battle lines for the skirmish that is still up ahead with the evil ghost.

Comment from Pen&Ink
Good Morning, Bev. This is a very well-written chapter which needs only slight tweaking. You allow conversation to carry much of the plot. Your use of detail in the descriptions is excellent. Here are my suggestions for your consideration.
After introductions were completed,
No need for "were completed".
At the disgusted look on Emma's face, Mia began to laugh and soon had her friend joining in with her.
Rearranged:
Mia began to laugh (at the disgusted look on Emma's face, and soon had her friend joining in.")
pivotted

Good job on this chapter.
