Ghost Tales

Well what's been happening to our weather are they messing with it? I've not been able to get out and about in my car and at this rate I should consider trading it in for a rowing boat.

I'm flicking through a book while waiting for the waters to subside, here's a good one a bit about werewolves. Considering Barnum Flowers is supposed to have a werewolf in his circus of human oddity acts, a real one not as it says here about the person being in a delusional state called lycanthropy. It says the patient believes he or she can literally transform into a wolf.

Oh, look here if this doesn't start you looking at yourself and others with a more than curious fascination. It states the identifying features of a werewolf are red hair and blue eyes, well that rules me out, eyebrows that meet in the middle, nope, index finger same length as the middle finger, nope! Also I don't find weird transformations happening at the full moon.

You know I just might have a mobile phone number for Barnum Flowers somewhere in the old diary. I wonder if he's around to take a call and ask him about his so-called werewolf...


"Barnum Flowers is that you..?"
"Yes." Rather curt I thought.
"Willoughby Bedford here, it's a bad line..."
"Yes."
"Is it really true, now come on, do you have a proper werewolf in your circus?"
"Yes"
I'm not going to get anywhere with this.
"Barnum is Jonathan with you, Jonathan Harker?"
The phone went dead. Blast!
You know I wish I could see that werewolf... I stopped and realised what I could see in the corner of my eye, that lion's paw, oh hell what have I just gone and done?

If you need some background to why I am a little concerned see my previous post The Paranormal Paraphernalia Emporium
