h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I was about to write ths journal asking for some ideas on more spooky stuff to write as my Esther Cox entry is front page today n my familliars one was yesterday, when i realised ive had 15 entries acceped now..hang on..15?? when did that happen..ive only written a couple i though! ..my how time sneaks up n bites our bums.

Anywho..seeing as it looks like im gonna be laid up even longer now my glands are huge n i cant swallow properly even ..on top of everyting else ..(whatever ive done to upset you BOB im sorry!) i thought i may as well make myself useful.

So any suggestions for spomething strange, unusual spooky or scary i can go research? I'm already tempted by 'Black Annis ' and a generalish entry on traditional witchy entries for halloween.

entries? recipes..

Great going S!
I like your haunting tales
How about an entry on famous witch ghosts?


Double spooky!




get well soon!

I can't think of any ghosts of witches i'veheard of i could do somethinh on the witch/prophetess mother shipton but it wouldn't be very creepy.


Someone 'upstairs' is annoyed with me n sending me all the plagues it feels!

Mother Shipton would be great! I've visited the cave, and that *is* spooky!

really? I may have to ask you some more about that then and ossibly quote you if thats okn i get round to the entry. I'm definately gonna start something on Black Annis this afternoon.

I was going to have an entry on the legends of the witches of Caneudon and Ashington, but I couldn't reserch enough information

No particular ideas for entries, just that whatever you've done to upset bob, I've done it too. My glands are very big and I've been having bacterial tonsilitis for the last week.

Aww you poor thing congrats on yourgcse results btw

ive been lurking more than posting lately.

its not just this glandy thing that makes me think ive pisssed off bob..

in thelast 6 weeks ive had chest infection, nasty toilet cleanerbreathing incident, bronchitis, a major allergic reaction with lovely itchy alll over rash , 2 teeth pulledvery panfully nnow this on top! ie still not fully recoverd from the first chest infection cos its all carried over i is in the wars.

I was on penicillin for a week and my tonsils are still huge. Thanks for the congrats I feel like I'm going to turn into a crotchety old hypocondriach.

You'll be in good company then

I've done a new entry (with a bit of help from Matt )

In terms of ghost type entrys, know anything about 'Black shuck'? Might e a good one to do, could even mention the Darkness song of the same name; as they all went to the same schools as me they'd have been on the 'ghost trail' some of th teachers used to organise that took in the sites where black shuck was supposed to have been, including seeing the 'claw marks' on the door of the church canny think of any others though I do vaguely remember there are a lot more besides Black shuck that are from round the Suffolk/Norfolk areas

could do!

I like the Black Annis one!!!

Thanks , it creeps me out! 'shudder'

glad i dont live in leicester!

I'm also feeling the urge to revive my supernatural/folklore/hprror forum at A726950 if anyones interested

I've now managed to go from no ideas for what to write to too many to know where to start!

so if anyone wants to help out , withfull credit of course! ..on the following..

lizzie borden
black shuck
mother shipton
red caps
james herbert
the poltergeist movies
the fox sisters
the legend of sleepy hollow

among others, id be grateful
