DISCUSSION THREAD -- October 2021 -- 75 Word Writing Challenge

@sule .... Entanglement .... Love is more than skin deep, even in death.
 
@chrispenycate .... Historical Haunts, multi tenses .... the past whispers in a ghostly fashion about the future.

@Deni .... The little elf .... In a world of magic the voice of memory might just be the voice of reality.
 
@Marvin .... It’s a boy… .... a story which puts the horror into ghost stories.

@Moonbat .... Brrreeeexxiiiiittttt .... Some ghosts are more real than others.
 
I've been a busy wee bee this month, and I was not at all sure that I'd get time to enter, with everything else I have going on.

But, for what it's worth, my pitiful attempt is in.
 
I'm slow, and I'm sorry for my delay in getting these reviews out. My excuse? My computer had been commandeered by one of my granddaughters most of the past 4 days, and we've had 5 and for a while, all 8 of our grandkids at our house. It's quiet now, no Vikings on T.V., and I've recovered enough to tackle this.

@StilLearning .... Death: A narrow, if noisy, escape .... Sometimes death can be as confusing as life and less reassuring.

@Venusian Broon .... The Cursed Traveller .... Sometimes you don't want to know the answer to the question you just asked.

@The Judge .... Ghost House .... And just when you think you've likely heard every twist on a ghost story, up pops one you've never considered.

@Ursa major .... To Who It May Concern .... The Doctor goes deep into the philosophical world.

@Abernovo .... Forever Sailing a Sea of Stars .... Remembers that The Flying Dutchman is not limited to the 7 seas.

@Perpetual Man .... Ghost Perceptions .... The way we remember our ghosts changes over time.

Wow guys! Forty-six stories is a very solid month. Even if the stories all dealt in the ethereal.
