The Secret of Crickley Hall

[RiaOverTheRainbow]

Did anyone else watch this? Thoroughly creeped out.

My right little finger is smaller than my left one by about a cm.

Moln don't be scared. Do you play the lottery ?

I got a sample of the book on my Kindle but was really put off by the writing. Shame, I thought a bit of spooky terror would be the perfect thing for wiling away a long wait at the doctor's

I´m reading it online atm Fiderer

Think it might be a condensed version-but it seems badly written to be as well.

Fiderer, I'm imagining you reading the spooky terror in the waiting room and then walking in to the see the GP white as a sheet and shaking and him saying "Whatever's the matter?"

Toffee exactly I was all keyed up and then deflated. May as well have read one of the 74 magazines advising me on Christmas Decorations You Make Yourself or avoiding piles (also home-made )

Although I was only waiting for FidBoy2 to have his thumb x-rayed (hurt playing Zombie Ball in sport at school) so the white and shaking may have made me look like a loon.

He still can't explain what Zombie Ball is, mind. I think it sounds quite MN-like.

Finished it. Damn. Was determined to read it slowly

zombie ball would be best played in 'the walking dead' and using zomblies heads

Imagine if I had read more of the book and when we were called in to see the doctor who asked "What's the matter?" ...

Me: "Zombie Ball, cane, drowned, she's dead, ghosts, his thumb hurts"

My idea that Cam was somehow called by the children/Stefan doesn't stand up though. The dad got a job in the area, the dead couldn't have arranged that, surely.

Oh my goodness we've only got ONE day to wait till' it's on again!

Ooh. In the Radio Times it lists the name of the actors who appear in it tomorrow. There is the name of an actor/ress who plays one of the characters when he/she is elderly, so I now know that they will be in it tomorrow and who else will be. I thought Mrs Mushroom had worked it out, but now I've seen which elderly character will be in it tomorrow I have changed my mind. I won't say who it is thought!

0-O

No! I am right!! Or may be sort of half right! Either way....I hope DH buggers off out tomorrow as last week I kept having to explain things to him because he missed the first one!

See that girl? Well she's got a withered arm right? And she's....erm..a goody...she tried to save the kids....and that old man....yes he's nicked their dog but we don't THINK he's a baddy.

DH

But if your dh buggers off out you will be all on your own.... to deal with the creaky floor boards and swishing cane noises and grabbing hands when you go to get biccies out of the cupboard!!

24hrs to go :)

Toffee if that physcho ghost came anywhere NEAR me I'd have his braces round his ankles and his cane you know where before he could swish it anywhere near me!

We're all brave now, it's daylight. Wait till later.

Dark. Quiet. What's that noise

Runnnnnnnnnnnnnn..............

Is anyone there?

[terrified]

watching and will now get off iphone so dont miss anything

will report after 10pm :)

Omg it is Maurice...

Maurice was the older boy at the Cribben´s house who would "tell on" the others.

I can't see where this is going.

Thanks Diddl. So he's the one now masquerading as the psychic?
