I was so excited. I was finally going to get to stay at the Claiborne Hotel. I had grown up in the San Francisco area, and the Clairborne Hotel had sat grandly on one of the highest hills in the city, looking out over the San Francisco Bay. As a kid I had always dreamed about what it would be like to live in a place like that, or even stay there for a few nights. The Clairborne had a storied history. It was built as a resort spa back in the late 1800s. I’m not sure who built the hotel, but I do know that at one time it was a hangout for the mob. They would send some of their old cronies over from back East to check into the hotel. There was a lot of talk that a number of them never checked out; at least not in the traditional way that is. Before I go on, I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Tony DeMarco. I’m named for my great grandfather. He was a colorful character in old San Francisco, and was reported to have been part of the syndicate that owned this very same hotel! My grandma always said I looked exactly like him. Find out what happens to Tony DeMarco when he spends a night in his grandfather’s hotel! Ages 9 and up.

This was our last chance. I know that my wife thought this was a folly at first, but tomorrow she would see how right I was. Tomorrow a lot of our dreams would come true. Let me give you a bit of background. I had been a normal working slob my whole life. I was unhappy at my job as an accountant, but I was even unhappier when I got laid off. It wasn’t my fault I wasn’t working anymore. The economy was bad and there weren’t as many businesses that needed auditing and bookkeeping. I was sick and tired of being at the mercy of someone else, so I decided to go into business for myself. Since I knew there wasn’t enough work for accountants, I decided I needed to do something new.

The trouble with Harrowby Hall was that it was haunted. What was worse, the ghost did not merely appear at the bedside of the person who saw it, but insisted on staying there for one hour before it would disappear. There she would stand until everything about her was thoroughly drenched. It never appeared except on Christmas Eve, and then only as the clock was striking twelve. The owners of Harrowby Hall had done their best to rid themselves of the damp and dewy lady, but she still rose up out of the best bedroom floor at midnight. They had tried stopping the clock, so the ghost would not know when it was midnight; but she made her appearance just the same. Find out how the heirs of Harrowby Hall attempt to outwit the water ghost, and what happens when they do! Ages 9 and up. Educational Versions have exercises designed to meet Common Core standards.

The scarecrow in the Williams’s field was certainly scary, and not just to crows. Bobby couldn’t say why exactly he found it as scary as he did. He just did. He told himself it was only some material filled with straw, but avoided going near it, all the same. He preferred it if he didn’t have to even think about it. The scarecrow had been there forever, or so it seemed. It had certainly been there as long as he’d been around, and as far as Bobby was concerned that was forever enough. Find out what happens when Bobby is forced to go into the cornfield and face the scarecrow in this short but creepy tale. Ages 9 and up.
