Corinne the Witch

(H)    Horror

Corrine the Witch

Let me tell you a story,

Not of past glory,

Of a girl named Corinne,

With great evil within.

So the story goes  -

I was in the kitchen, late, cleaning up, as I was a scullery maid, 

and the last to leave for the night, when Corrine came in.

She went to the griddle iron over the fire, and put something on it.

"Cook this lamb's fry, for the gentleman staying upstairs. He wants some supper !"

she snapped.

I went over to see, but that did not look like lamb's fry to me.

Opening my eyes wide, I said, "No !"

"Oh my goodness," I thought, nearly fainting from horror, and backing away from her.

"It's a human foetus ! It's from Corinne. She's deliberately miscarried it !"
