The Charles Dickens Experiment

If I had to choose my all time favorite Ghost Story

It would be Charles Dicken’s

A Christmas Carol.

It has it all, ghosts, gloom, despair, human monsters ( my favorite kind of monster ) and at the end when Scrooge is in the Graveyard and has guessed exactly who is in that uncared for grave and says:

“Before I draw nearer to that stone to which you point,” said Scrooge, “answer me one question. Are these the shadows of the things that Will be, or are they shadows of things that May be, only?”

Pure Ghost Story Gold.

So here’s the deal.

Normally from November till Christmas I do the light hearted stuff.

But this year I do believe that today I will return to my Owl Creek Bridge Blog and begin

The Dicken’s Experiment.

I want to see if I can keep it odd and macabre during the Christmas Season.

I’ll bet you I can.

So check out my daily posts HERE and see how I do.

Happy Holidays!

You know, until I get my hands all over it.
