Fitz-James O'Brien - What Was it?: A house on 22nd Street, New York. Following a night of opium and conversation about the supernatural, Harry is attacked in his bed by an invisible being. After an exhausting struggle he eventually overpowers the unseen assailant and, with the assistance of friend Hammond, subdues it with binds. They have no idea what to do with "the enigma" as to hold it prisoner in the house is impossible but letting it loose on the world is unthinkable. Fortunately the being dies through lack of sustenance, having refused all food proffered it by its worried captives. They give it a quick plaster-casting and bury it in the garden.
Tigrina - Last Act: October: Original to Magazine Of Horror. Young Meg Clayton was burnt as a witch by the Bloomsbury Villagers. Before she died, she placed a curse on them and all generations of their families to come - "October shall bode ill for you and yours".
Jump to the present day and Miss Simpson's Residence for Refined Gentlewomen where spinster Hortense Pilkington - the last descendant of the 'witch-finder - has just agreed to mind the Cranston child on All Hallows Eve. Being aware of the curse and conscious of how many of her family have died during October down the years, she takes every precaution to ensure her safety until one minute past midnight when she'll be safe for another year ...
