Description: One hundred years ago in Port Arbello a pretty little girl began to scream. And struggle. And die. No one heard. No one saw. Just one man whose guilty heart burst in pain as he dashed himself to death in the sea. Now something peculiar is happening in Port Arbello. The children are disappearing, one by one. An evil history is repeating itself. And one strange, terrified child has ended her silence with a scream that began a hundred years ago.



This is the one that starts with a little girl chasing a bunny in New England in the late 1800s.

What is it about New England and horror stories? Must be the same way that gothic big house stories work best in a Cornish setting.
