#AtoZChallenge 2019 Days 1 & 2
For those not in the know, the AtoZChallenge happens every April and this year is it's 10th anniversary. Bloggers from all over the world post everyday using the letter of the alphabet for that day as a prompt (e.g. A on the 1st, B on the 2nd etc), except for Sundays - hence 26 days. Some of us also have a theme.
This year my theme is ghosts and I am writing flashfic ghost stories for every day, inspired by local haunting in Kent, where I live.
Day 1 - A
For A I chose The Abbott's Fireside in Elham as my inspiration. This pub/restaurant is said to have 2 phantoms, one that of a man brandishing a sword, and the other a Cirstercian monk in full habit. It prompted me to come up with a humorous little flashfic.
Story description:
Molly has only been working at the restaurant a few weeks, she never thought the stories about the ghosts could be true.

Day 2 - B
Today's location and haunting is the Battlements of Dover Castle. Unlike yesterday's story, this one is on the dark side, so be warned.
Story description:
Ben gets lost on a ghost tour of the castle and meets something strange when he ends up on the battlements.
