Who is Icy Sedgwick?
Icy is a folklore blogger and host of the Fabulous Folklore podcast. She is based in the north east of England, where she was born and raised amid the folk tales and legends of Tyneside and Northumberland. Icy is fascinated by history, cinema, art, and the occult, and griffins will always be her favourite mythical beast. She also writes dark fantasy novellas, Gothic short stories and the occasional weird Western, and she holds a PhD in Film Studies!
You can only wait so long, right? Loved the twist here!
I agree, great twist! Nice work with the setting.
(Looks like you’re missing a word in the last sentence “she thought saw”.)
Sorry tourists, no more waiting. Wonderful last line. Nice one, Icy.
Now that would be the perfect ghost tour but it’d be a while before I’d go on another one! Super imagery as always Icy.
Aww sweet ending, she’s found him again. ^_^
So they split? Oh, I like that.
And the tourists STILL got to see a ghost! Win-win, right? 🙂
What a beautiful ghost story, I was kind of expecting horror at the end, and was happy to be wrong.
I really liked this one Icy.
Awwwww… that was really lovely, and a nice twist from the traditional.
