You may have heard of ghosts taking on the shapes of headless horsemen.

But have you heard of the one about the ghost of a headless horse?

I published a short story to my dark fiction journal this morning, a story that was originally published with Quail Bell, a Canadian journal. (I am providing the friend link, no paywall.) If you are interested in publishing a dark fiction story, be it a horror story, a tale of unease, a ghost story, an original folk or fairy tale, please keep A Dark Wood in mind as a possible venue. 🖤 💀 #darkfiction #ghoststory #shortstory #writingcommunity

Hares can be a major nuisance, and hard to get rid of.

In extreme cases, it may be necessary to hire an exorcist.

Sometimes you discover that your partner's relationship goals differ from your own.

It's okay to break up under such circumstances, but that doesn't mean you should be a jerk about it.

In fact, it's the rates for refusing their service that can be a killer.

Landlords never tell you the whole story about the apartment you are renting.

Even though things like "there is a ghost that stalks young mothers in the house" is pretty vital information!
