Very interesting plot, but this story begged to be longer.

Shelter From the Storm - A Ghost Story for Christmas
on Jan. 28, 2015
Well written, a fresh take on a classic plot. Loved some of the descriptions, such as the two old women smelling like a funeral parlor. More attention should have been given to composing the ending as it just dropped off.
