    Two stories: 1. Spirit ofThe Drusilla: An evil witch is executed in the 17th century and revives in the 21st century. The witch is a spirit with no body, and is seeking a body to possess. She finds it in a young girl hiking alone in the woods. 2. Sanctuary: A young girl seeks shelter from a storm in a deserted house, but finds the house is not deserted; something dreadfully evil is there.

    Donald H Sullivan

    I'm a native Floridian, retired from the US Army, I started writing in the army, mostly training and tech manuals. Boring stuff, but it whetted my interest in writing. I've written sci-fi, thrillers, mysteries, humor, fantasies, horror, and more. I'm now living in NC. While in the army, I served in air defense artillery, military intelligence, and psychological operations. I also worked in Federal Civil Service as a quality assurance specialist, ammunition surveillance. I love writing, reading, most kinds of music, and animals--especially dogs.

      About the Author

      Part I Spirit of Drusilla

      Drusilla Murdock strained at her bonds as she surveyed the crowd that gathered to witness her execution. Among them she spotted Jonathon Keyes, renowned witch hunter, who had been responsible for her capture and trial. A white-hot hatred welled up within her as she beheld the man.

      The witch hunter was moving through the crowd, coming toward her. He walked up and faced her.

      I know that you're thinking of revenge, but I'm taking measures to prevent that. I accept that your spirit may survive the fire, but I have found a way to trap it. Your ashes will be spread on a bridge spanning running water, thus trapping your soul at the bridge. To reinforce your imprisonment, I have placed a blessing on the bridge which will prevent your spirit from passing through its timbers. You will remain there until the bridge itself crumbles. Your spirit will sleep there for a long time, Drusilla.

      She laughed at him. "You can trap my spirit for a time, but you cannot kill it because you have not found my secret bane--though I
