Wealthy Uncle

Lived alone

Discovered dead.

Family members

Rapid response.

Financial gains

Sudden interest

Crowded church.

Greedy vultures

Flock around

Skeleton bones.

Cursed grave

Sleeping spirit

Seeks revenge.

Solicitor's office

Scavengers arrive

Rich pickings.

Cat's charity

Sole benefactor

Hostile reaction.

Howling wind

Rustling, rattling

Haunting cries.

Despair returns

Creaking floors

Disturbing sleep.

For you

My ghost

I give.

Nigel,
I hope it wasn`t some stray moggy drifted into wealthy uncle`s house one night when he was alone and persuaded him to take the tablets. (I wouldn`t put it past them)

Enjoyed. Humour with an edgy point.
