The mansion was perched precariously near the edge of the cliff which overlooked the ocean.

"What a lovely house" Helen Pevensie gushed,she turned back to smile at her four children

"I'm sure you four will have such adventures here" .They didn't smile back instead stared straigh ahead at the house that was to be their new home.

They climbed out of the car and grabbed their suitcases.

"I highly doubt that " Edmund muttered,Lucy stepped closer to Peter

"Scared,Lu" he asked

"A bit" the little girl admitted .Peter squeezed her hand

They followed their mother into the house. It took a while to get adjusted to the house the oak walls made it look darker.

"You are the Pevensies,I presume" a voice in the shadows said ,the speaker came forward .It was a lady with grey hair pulled in a tight bun."You are late" she said

"Yes,well we got lost" Helen said "These are my children" she started to introduce them,but was interrupted

"I'm not fond of children neither is my husband" the lady said coldly,"I'm Mrs.Mcormick,I am was your great uncle's housekeeper,my husband is both caretaker and butler"

She started toward the stairs and they followed her,"You're probably wondering why we stayed on even after your Uncles untimely passing" Mrs.Mcormack said.She didn't wait for an answer

"We have no family just each other,this could be your eldest daughter's room" she said stopping at a door and pushing it open.

Susan peered in.The room was done in a mauve colour ,eggshell curtains fluttered in the breeze.On the far wall was a desk and chair. a bed ,dresser and wardrobe completed the room it was a big room too.Susan went in and shut the door

"This house is riddled with tragedy and sorrow" Mrs.Mcormack continued

"Like what" Peter asked

Mrs.Mcormack glared at him and he shivered slightly

"Deaths,murders and suicides " she said "This is your room" she said opening a door his room looked like Susan's except a different colour ,for some reason he felt chilled when he stepped into the room. Placing his suitcase on the bed . He went to the window and looked down,he could see the ocean in the distance. This room had a creepy feeling and he didn't want to stay in it longer than he had to.Taking a deep breath he turned back to his unpacking.

later

"Well,do you like the house" Mum asked as she served the soup

"I do" Lucy said "We could play hide and seek"

"It's like the house in Wuthering Heights" Susan sighed dreamily intending to curl up after lunch with aforementioned novel.

"I think there's a lot of mystery in this house"Edmund said dark eyes sparkling he loved mysteries and read every Sherlock Holmes novel he could get his hands on.

Only Peter was silent,he was dreading the coming night.for some reason his room seemed to hold the most mystery and horror. He couldn't say why either,but it he could feel it.

"It's nice" was all he said

That night.

The Woman was silent as she crept up to the bed,the room was dark.But there was enough moonlight to illimunate the silvery butcher knife.Her husband lay sleeping peacefully . The woman raised the knife and bought it down over and over and over blood spattered everywhere on the walls,the sheets,the floor.The woman dropped the knife and glided toward the window,leaving a trail of blood in her wake,the hem of her dressing gown was covered in blood. Opening the window ,she stepped out onto the ledge and turned around so she was facing the room and her husband

"I'm sorry,mon cheri" she said before letting herself fall

Peter woke up with a gasp and shudder

Susan's room

Susan was in the middle of a nice dream ,when she heard the laughter of a children.Thinking it was Lucy she sat up prepared to scold her little sister. Instead of Lucy though there were two little girls playing they were dressed in old fashioned dresses; pinafores and bows in their hair.

They looked up at Susan and giggled before turning back to their game. One of the girls stood up cradling a doll ,she went to Susan and held the doll out.

Susan reached out and pulled back when the girls and doll burst into flames ,leaving only ashes in their wake. Susan screamed .

Edmund's room

The sound of crying woke Edmund up.it was coming from outside. Curious he sat up and went to the window and looked out. There was no one there.But just as he was about to turn away and go back to bed he heard it again. Going back to the window ,he saw a lady dressed in white holding a bouquet of flowers.She walked straight into the ocean . Edmund wasn't frightened only curious

Lucy's room

Lucy sat up when she heard the sound of someone talking.Dismissing it she went back to sleep. She never saw the ragged looking young man in the corner.Imprisoned by his father for a crime he did not commit;.he had died in that corner a young man only twenty two.

A/N it'sa bit short,I know and yes Lucy will meet her ghostly companion,he's not scary only sad.Peter's ghost is frightening.Susan's is half and half and Edmund's is heartbroken
