The Legend of the Haunted Hallowdijk: Part 4 - The Barmaid
Fetch me a pint, lads, and I'll tell you what happens next. Now by this stage, people were starting to get spooked. You must understand, this was a small village. Less than 50 people. So while Hades, God of the dead, wasn't a stranger, he rarely visited that often. But something's always wrong when the landlord of the only pub in town has his head caved in.
Well, by popular demand, the place was given to the Widow Hagen to look after. Rumour said she was the old man's mistress anyway, so it only seemed fitting.
She did a decent enough job; kept everything running in basically the same way it had, tried to look after folks. But it was obvious things weren't the same. The heart had gone out of the place.
Everyone was terrified, wondering whether there would be more deaths or not.
And then, sad to say, Widow Hagen was next. Not brutal like the old man, just quiet, calm. One day she didn't open the Inn, and was found dead in her chamber. No signs of a struggle.
Well, soon enough, people stopped going out. Stayed clear of each other. Kept a weapon close at hand, and prayed every chance they got.
