Haunted: A Short Story

I grew up in a neighborhood where there were several houses believed to be haunted by the children who roamed the area. This is probably true of many areas where homes are old and family histories have morphed over time. Half-heard gossip can fuel the imagination. In this short story, rumors of a home haunted by ghosts gives way to very real family drama. This is a coming-of-age story where the imaginings of childhood are overridden by reality.
