To think that a classic ghost story, with classic ingredients, DOES NOT INCLUDE A TOWER!

Towers with secret doors are FOR FAIRYTALES.

Not ghost stories.

There's an Evil Power in the Tower.
There's sumfin' in there, I saw it glower.

'There's a ghost up the tower,' said Uncle Gregory.

'OK, I'll never go there,' said Timmy, running off to the Isle of Wight Festival with his chums.

The End.

I might write a bit more in the middle about rocking chairs and pictures with moving eyes.

Bimblepops · 14/06/2013 23:30

I have to be honest...I've never heard a ghost story with a tower in it...

squoosh · 14/06/2013 23:30

Maybe the ghost story will be set in Gower.

SPsCliffingAllOverMN · 14/06/2013 23:31

Can you add a creepy huge pram that moves on its own in an empty room

Salmotrutta · 14/06/2013 23:31

But Timmy would go Up The Tower Attic

Purely because Uncle Gregory said not to.

And he'd go alone.

Thems the Rules.

Sod ghost stories, Breakfast Club is on BBC2

squoosh · 14/06/2013 23:31

And there has to be a grey rocking horse with a white mane that rocks even though there is no one in the room.

Salmotrutta · 14/06/2013 23:32

Thank you Bimble.

A lone voice in the wilderness.

Can one of the characters be taken up the tower?

usualsuspect · 14/06/2013 23:34

Bimble has been bribed, I think

OOh The Breakfast Club.

Judd Nelson could star in the film adaptation of the Ghost up the Tower.

usualsuspect · 14/06/2013 23:35

Always lowering the tone, Tethers.

Salmotrutta · 14/06/2013 23:36

Or... The Ghost Up The Attic.

PAGANS

Can we have pagans?

Bimblepops · 14/06/2013 23:38

Bloody marvellous film...

usualsuspect · 14/06/2013 23:38

YY to pagans, dancing naked in weird masks.

squoosh · 14/06/2013 23:38

Ghosts penetrate the darkness, not the darkness of your bumhole.

HauntedArmchairOfDoom · 14/06/2013 23:38

The GREATEST GHOST STORY OF ALL TIME has a tower.

Viz, The Turn of the Screw.

HTH.

Salmotrutta · 14/06/2013 23:39

I sense a theme to add to our collection:

The Eels In Caves documentary

MN in Jail

MN The Musical

The Ghost Up The Tower Attic.

You don't want that ectoplasm up your arse.

Bimblepops · 14/06/2013 23:40

If you want a good spooky film, try and see Paperhouse.
