Mrs Peacock and Lady Mary Ann stand under the spiral staircase undergoing a heated conversation.
I beg to differ, Mrs Peacock. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is one of her greatest works and continues to gain popularity each day. Granted I have not yet read Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters. I cannot give opinion yet for that, but I am sure that I will not be let down knowing that it is a Jane Austen work.
Mrs Peacock stands down and is resigned to accept Lady Mary Ann's comments. She pulls out the book from the shelf that she had pointed out earlier.
In any case, Lady Mary Ann, I entreat you to read this, In The Manor Of the Ghost by Tina Pinson. What say you of ghostly stories?
And how about you, dear guest, do you like ghost stories?

I still haven't read my copy of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies. I'm quite curious!
ReplyDeleteOoooh, that staircase is *Grand* (I want one lol)
ReplyDeleteAnd as for ghost stories - (next to zombeeezzz)they are my FAVORITE reads - especially the victorian kind wherein the unsuspecting young man (or woman) must seek shelter in the most sinister of mansions hehehe

Anxious that tempers should settle, Mary Ann gracefully accepts the volume Mrs. Peacock extends her. Mrs. Peacock gives a conciliatory grin in return when suddenly ...
Heavens ... is that? ... ugh, but it is! ... there seems to be a grisly bit of ragged flesh trapped between Mrs. Peacock's disturbingly pointed front teeth.
Mary Ann feels the onset of a bad case of vapours, and excuses herself on a pretext.
Hurrying back to the Lounge, she speculates that Mrs. Peacock may have more *interest* in Jane's amazing Dreadfuls than she cares to admit...'
I feel so awful.... Pride and Prejudice and Zombies is one I have read, and further more, one I regretfully did not enjoy. I enjoyed Pride and Prejudice with out the Sea Monsters. It was Ben Winters addition to the original tale that I disliked. I feel so bad for spewing at the mouth.... my deepest apologies.
