The Increasing Dead
Henri could ignore it no longer.
It was the school was haunted.
He had thought little of it at first. He needed the job and he had always dreamed of teaching, but soon enough it seemed that the little disturbances felt – well – more worrying than they ought to be. The little things were the most the way that the stereo would turn itself on, the way that the doll in his office would move at night, and even the way the clock would fall from the wall. It scared him.
It wouldn’t have been so bad, but considering the death of the teacher that came before him . . . he wondered if his predecessor was out for revenge. That wasn’t to mention his psychic pupil, the girl with the strange accidents, or his somewhat supernatural uncle. All in all, it was a little much to bear.
He had to get to the bottom of it and soon.
There would only be more deaths.
