Oh! That gave me shivers. I think I’d be doing more running than praying. LOL. Nicely done!
Ewww! Nice.
Sending ripples down the spine!
Great lead-in to Halloween. Really nice.
Ack! Yes, perfect for Halloween. Makes me want to check all the nooks and crannies at home. Well done, Madeline!

Thanks, Stacy! Better check in the closet and under the bed, too… 😮
