When Ghosts Kill: A Short Story

About

A blood-curdling scream in the middle of the night awakens the Dempsey’s to a nightmare that will haunt them forever. Their twelve-year-old daughter, Cassandra, is dead in her room. The horrible facial expression, frozen in death, on that once beautiful, innocent face testifies that something scared her to death.

Who or what did such a horrible thing to this child? Is it possible that, as most of the town believes, a ghost haunts the old Bed and Breakfast where the Dempsey’s lives and work?

Will Samantha Crocket be able to solve the mystery of Cassandra’s death in this short story and end the haunting. She has promised her boss that she will. He has directed her to do more than just end the haunting; he wants the culprit apprehended and brought in to face a special kind of justice.

There’s just one problem, if not human, how do you capture and apprehend a ghost?
