Very short, non work safe ghost story.


In the basement of a small church somewhere in Dorset, a man continually beats his head against the wall of the perspex cube he is inprisoned within. The parishoners know he is there, and give the rector a stipend to look after him. The rector and the madman are brothers, but they are the lucky ones. Their third brother is condemned to an undead hell.

When you see an unimaginable horror, there are two paths you can take. Madness or the cloth. Richard became a priest to try and deal with what he saw, while Colin went insane. He beats his head against the wall to try and remove the scene from his mind.

In 1647, Mary was a pretty young woman, who turned the heads of many people in the village, but none so much of the local squire. During that winter, under a pretext of kindness, he invited her to his manor. He then proceeded to force himself upon her, during which he accidentally broke her neck. She now haunts the ruins of the manor, which nobody dares either build upon, or stay within after darkness.

Being young and foolish, for a bet, the the three bothers camped out within the ruins of the manor. Richard, Colin and Brian did not believe in ghosts, and considered the fifty pounds they were promised easy money.

And then Mary came.

Why she chose Brian is a mystery. Taken out of time, he is forced to rape her, every night. When he is finished, he screams and screams, because he was an innocent before. Colin and Richard saw this the first time, hence their respective paths.

Back in Dorset, the Priest and the Madman are the lucky ones.
