Haunted Objects: Stories Of Ghosts On Your Shelf - Plot & Excerpts
Richard never felt comfortable around the clock, saying it always gave him the creeps, even though he had no idea why. He said it looked like a small version of the famous “Big Ben” clock in London. It had a gold case and a green face with Roman numerals in a gold color. The hands and wind-up key were brass.Although it was an ordinary little clock, it just never sat right with Richard. Just being in the same room with it would give him fits of paranoia, as if it was ticking down the minutes of his life.When Richard’s great-grandmother died, the clock stopped working. No matter what was tried, it wouldn’t start up again. Richard began to wonder if maybe the tick-tocks hadn’t been measuring his life, but rather that of his great-grandmother. The thought was enough to send shivers down his spine.Richard’s mother never threw the broken clock away because it held sentimental value for her, and every time he looked at it, he would get a sick feeling in the pit of his stomach. When his mother was out one day, Richard buried the clock in the backyard.
