Persnickety Penelope hears again from the paranormal creep
30 December 2009
Persnickety Penelope was startled one October afternoon while she was cleaning the living room. She heard something crash in her dining room, just a few steps away. So Persnickety Penelope went off to see what tragedy had befallen her hutch full of treasures, all placed nice and neat. What she found was a beloved Hummel figure on the carpet, it’s head had been decapitated and the plate behind it was laying on the shelf without any injury, it must have been the creep. The physics could not have shoved this figurine off the cabinet, it was stuck to the shelf with “Museum Gel” which is a sticky wax, more like cement. Persnickety Penelope was grief stricken because this Hummel figure had belong to her great Aunt Minnie. So she glued it back together and carefully returned it to her cabinet with extra museum gel to keep it from being removed once again.
On Christmas eve, this happened once again with her daughter and granddaughter standing in the dining room. No explanation came from them, other than disbelief. Having gone through this strange phenomena recently, Persnickety Penelope nodded however in belief.
Yesterday Persnickety Penelope was returning her fine glassware to her sweet corner cabinet when she realized there weren’t eight pretty glasses anymore looking so sweet, the total count was seven. Persnickety Penelope wondered who in the family had removed one glass from her corner cabinet. These glasses were not so expensive although they were pretty, all hand painted. Befuddled, she wondered who broke a glass? So she counted again and again and each time only came up with seven.
This morning Persnickety Penelope was strolling past her corner cabinet when she noticed the eighth one was sitting there at the front of shelf#3. “Trickster, that’s what he is…..a trickster playing jokes on me again.” said Persnickety Penelope to the ghost who came to her house like a sneaky creep.
