So, sit back, turn down the lights, pull up the covers, and pay close attention as I read this terrific classic horror story.

The Red Treehouse is dedicated to my Dad, I love you, Pop. Join me in The Red Treehouse as I read a terrific short horror story, The Old Nurse's Story, written by Elizabeth Gaskell. First published in 1852, The Old Nurse’s Story by Elizabeth Gaskell, is a layered and terrific Victorian ghost story that explores themes of family, identity, and the sometimes-tragic consequences of past wrongs. Written from the POV of an elderly nurse, Gaskell’s story is set in a cold, isolated manor full of ghostly apparitions, strange organ music, and a devilish sense of foreboding. And, it’s set around the Christmas season—perfect for this time of  year. So sit back, turn down the lights, pull up the covers, and pay close attention as I read The Old Nurse’s Story.

The Red Treehouse is dedicated to my Dad. I love you, Pop. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I’ve said this before, but I’ve always been too scared to mess with a Ouija Board. I know, I know—lots of folks say, “it’s just a toy, there’s nothing to be afraid of.” But I watched The Exorcist at 9 years old, and I’ve been entirely too chicken shit to try it. Maybe one day. But not today. And the stories I’m about to tell you have only reinforced my decision to stay away! Is it possible that messing with a Ouija Board opens a portal to a supernatural world—and invites potentially dark, malevolent spirits into ours? Join me in The Red Treehouse to find out!
