The Teacher's Tales Of Terror (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
It was a dull and sunless day, but even so the tiny shop seemed gloomy and cave-like in comparison. Martha Thriplow was still occupied with trying to recall the nightmare that had disturbed her sleep. She had barely noticed anything on her walk up from the harbour. It was something terrible, she remembered. But that was all she could remember. Martha, her mother and her brother, Vernon, had been in Whitby for three days now and so far the holiday, such as it was, had been a joyless affair. Martha’s father had died almost six months previously and they had been dressed in black ever since. Their mother had promised that Martha and her brother might each have a piece of jet jewellery as a memento of this holiday. Martha was to have a brooch, Vernon a pair of cufflinks. Martha had loved her father dearly. He had been so unlike the fathers of most of her friends. He had been kind and sweet-natured. He had taken a genuine interest in what she was doing. She missed him terribly. But still she longed to have some colour in her life again.
