... for a creative writing lesson. Mind has gone blank. We have looked at Neil Gaiman 'Chivalry', and 'Lamb to the Slaughter' and Then Landlady' from Roald Dahl Tales of the Unexpected

Any ideas?

Stephen King ? I've taught some of his before

Was going to suggest Roald Dahl but see you’ve got there.

The Lottery by Shirley Jackson
The Swimmer by John Cheever
Rip Van Winkle by Washington Irving
The Tell Tale Heart by Edgar Allen Poe
The Yellow Wallpaper

All famous ones that spring to mind, you’d have to judge suitability for age etc.

The Darkness Out There by Penelope Lively is one I remember doing at school.
