Oh my, heavens to Betsy, mark Darrell's words, especially in this most poignant and bewitching month of October, when he says, he has a gift for sniffing out the unearthly .......
...... but if ever there was a haunted portrait of a very creepy gentleman, it's the one he spotted in an Evesham charity shop (Tracey Sollis) yesterday afternoon for the princely sum of £250, way out of our budget, so needless to say, no considered purchase was made.
And, to be honest, I've never been soooooooo glad, as said creepy, velvet wrapped, gentleman has those "knowing" sort of eyes that follow you round a room. I certainly couldn't live under such a gaze. This portrait and gentleman "have seen things" ...... unspeakable things!
You also don't have to be a late, great, beloved Derek Acorah (RIP) to recognise that his horrible, bony fingers (ET-esque?) just have to be a coded sign or message from the unspoken past, for something dreadful of a nefarious type nature, they are truly unsettling. I think the spirit of the month has really got to us this year because what are we like?

Agreed!
250 quid!!?? In a charity shop?? Is it signed? Do you think they forgot the decimal point, and it should read £2.50?
