Hey, writers! Looking to write a ghost story? There are 5 ghostly posts on my Weird Wednesday blog, with writing prompts:

The Greenbrier Ghost: Testimony from Beyond the Grave

Poltergeists: Noisy Ghosts

The Amityville Horror: Infamous American Haunted House

The Haunted Rail: Ghost Trains

The Mysterious Ouija Board: Who Are You Talking To?

A prompt for Ghost Trains:

Memento Mori. Hauntings that replay tragedies are called residual hauntings. They’re like an old movie, where none of the actors are actually present in your living room, but you can watch them over and over. Grieving characters might be drawn to the scene of a train crash on its anniversary for a last glimpse of a loved one who died on the train. Or they might hear rumors of vanishing-hitchhiker passengers and hope they might recognize one. A character could even contact a necromancer (a person with the magical skill to summon the dead) to try to keep the hitchhiker from vanishing.
