Drabble 274

Finished 1:39. It is now the first day of Halloween!!1! (Well, okay, technically the second, but remember the day doesn't change over until I've gone to sleep). I can't promise that EVERY entry this month will be Halloween themed, but there'll be a few. Also, this on was a pain. I had to find somewhere to cut out one word. Just the one :P

In a small, quiet town in a dark and rainy part of the country there was a hill. That hill was steep, without any proper path by which to get up. On top of that hill was a house; an old, rickety thing with creaking doors and walls that groaned and leaked whatever the weather. In that house lived a ghost. When people walked past the house on the hill the ghost would slam doors and rattle windows, loud enough to be heard at the bottom. People were afraid to go near there, but really the ghost was just lonely.
