Halloween has come and gone, but Autumn is still a great time for a ghostly scare. I love to hear a good ghost story, especially while gathered around a campfire. Who doesnβt? I thought I would share a few of my very favorite Short Stories of Horror.

Aww so true and uplifting words.
I love this time of year. So much sun and promise, and it really feels like you can do anything, that anything could be possible π
So trueβ¦ Spring is a beautiful season. Itβs autumn here, but we often have a green winter here in Oz, so not that dramatic a change.
Everyone needs to hear this....no matter how bad things get, we don't have to let them ruffle our feathers. So well said!
So true !!! Empowering in such a short poem!!!!! You go girl!!!!
Well-wrought! My first association with the term "tougher than leather" came from Run-DMC, who were huge when I was a kid!
I love this!! So positive and creative!
Upliftment is always welcome Tiff. Love and hugs.
My feathers are constantly getting ruffled but Iβd like to soar! βΊοΈ Thanks Tiff.
Love this, Tiffany!! This is so uplifting! I am ready for spring to arrive!! πͺπ»ππ₯°
Looking SO forward to new beginnings. And semi- excited for warmer weather. <3 Happy Spring!!
Don't have any feathers to ruffle & certainly don't feel tougher than leather (may look like it), but thanks for the encouragement. Seriously Tiffany, that really is a good & sage pep talk.
<3 Yes!! And tough shoe leather can go a long way <3

That's right... Tougher than leather when you cast your cares upon Him!
