Not so unpleasant meet up with a ghostly nurse

Meeting up with a ghost is not always an unpleasant one...  The following excerpt from The Ultimate Phantasms in the Infirmary leads to this...

The young student turned around to face the dark corridor, puzzled by the patient’s description of the nurse, especially as no nurses in the hospital wore white uniforms. Furthermore, hats had not been worn by nurses in decades. It was then that her questions were answered as she saw the nurse that had assisted her patients call for help. Joleyne was now facing a very pale looking figure, almost translucent in her white uniform and white hat in situ looking back at them. A pale face starred at her, a pallor that seemed to glow against the contrasting deep darkness in the background. Although she stood only a few feet away she could not recognise this nurse.

Screaming with fear

For all those who work in hospitals or ever have done, you will be familiar with haunted corridors, wards and spectral shenanigans.
Even if you are not a nurse, doctor or hospital staff, this anthology of ghostly tales is just what you need.
This is a work of horror fiction.
It is a collection of ghostly short commentaries and ghoulish encounters, that occur in a fictitious hospital. All assured to send shivers down your spine.
They are based on tales that have been shared by many hospital staff over many years of work in healthcare.
They have been meticulously developed into the tales contained within this compendium of scary fantasies.

The sightings, strange sounds and sinister goings on of the spectral activity retold in this book are based on true experiences, that have become local folklore in many hospitals.

The presence of those that have “unfinished business”, gripes or other reasons for not wanting to pass on, preferring to linger in the realm between life and death.
Those that are not alive, but then again are not completely gone.

A peek inside Phantasms in the Infirmary

Ghostly visitations...  A peek at the content of Phantasms in the Infirmary

The young student turned around to face the dark corridor, puzzled by the patient’s description of the nurse, especially as no nurses in the hospital wore white uniforms. Furthermore, hats had not been worn by nurses in decades. It was then that her questions were answered as she saw the nurse that had assisted her patients call for help.

Joleyne was now facing a very pale looking figure, almost translucent in her white uniform and white hat in situ looking back at them.

A pale face starred at her, a pallor that seemed to glow against the contrasting deep darkness in the background.

Although she stood only a few feet away she could not recognise this nurse. It certainly wasn’t Emma or Maggie.

Intriguing...  Want to read more?
Then download a copy of Phantasms in the Infirmary from Amazon on kindle or get your paperback copy on createspace... If you dare!!!

The book for you...

Phantasms in the Infirmary

For all those who work in hospitals or ever have done, you will be familiar with haunted corridors, wards and spectral shenanigans.
Even if you are not a nurse, doctor or hospital staff, this anthology of ghostly tales is just what you need.

The presence of those that have “unfinished business”, gripes or other reasons for not wanting to pass on, preferring to linger in the realm between life and death. Those that are not alive, but then again are not completely gone.
They linger, hanging on to this mortal coil for their own reasons in whatever way they can. Not ready to let go, their affairs left incomplete for whatever the reason may be. Their presence remains, not always a peaceful one.
These myths take place in hospital, buildings that have been constructed to heal the sick and injured. However they are also edifices that have seen a lot of deaths.
This collection is intended to relate some of the more memorable legends.
Ghostly nuns, haunted wards and supernatural spectres... If you like to be spooked, this is the book for you

Lessons from Facebook Activity

I have a Facebook page that is dedicated to my books and one of the followers was asking if the book was about Florence Nightingale?
I thought that was quite funny!
Then I looked at why this could have been thought...
I had posted a pan old photo of a nurse from the Victorian era, in uniform. I had manipulated the pic to make it look spectral but obviously she looked too much like Flo!

Its amazing how text can be interpreted and how much work, self publishing and the promotion of ones work takes.
The lesson learnt, there has to be clarity in the delivery of any message and make no assumptions... after all we know what the ASSUME Model is...

Never ASSUME because it will make an ASS out of U and ME!!

Here endeth the lesson!
