"The Ghost, The Gallant, The Gael, And The Goblin" unfolds in a realm where fantasy treads lightly over reality, blending the charm of the eerie with the curiosity of the absurd. In the twilight edge of an unsettled suburb, a ghost and a goblin sauntered in uneasy companionship, each carrying a distinct energy. The ghost, a relic of melancholic tragedy, moved with quiet dignity, his presence evoking shivers and thoughts of long-forgotten sorrows. The goblin, on the other hand, brimmed with kinetic…-

"The Phantom Curate. A Fable" begins not with mystery, but with quiet contradiction. A bishop, known more for his rigid enforcement of discipline than warmth, enforces a near-monastic lifestyle upon his clergy. He believes joy must be curbed, lest it appear improper, and that even harmless diversions could be perceived as lapses in holiness. Under this code, his priests are expected to forgo theater, dancing, music, and the like—not because they are wicked, but because they are worldly. The bishop,…

Captain Parklebury Todd, a figure of distinction in naval circles, finds greater thrill in orchestrating surprises than in commanding with solemnity. His world turns not on duty alone, but on the thrill of spectacle—thunderclaps, disguises, and perfectly timed dramatics designed to leave audiences in shock.

His role, as Old Christmas in a lavish pantomime, is expected to be cheerful and hearty, but the man beneath the garb bears none of that spirit.

Ballad: King Borria Bungalee Boo
King Borria Bungalee Boo reigned over his kingdom with more appetite than wisdom, ruling not with justice or diplomacy, but with an endless craving that kept his subjects uneasy. His court had once been filled with noblemen and servants, but over time, that number dwindled—not by rebellion or disease, but by digestion. Only four subjects remained by the time hunger overtook him fully, each marked by their personality and their fear of being next on the menu. Among them, Pish-Tush-Pooh-Bah flaunted…-

Ballad: The Periwinkle Girl
The Periwinkle Girl charms readers with a blend of humor, irony, and quiet criticism aimed at shallow judgments and social snobbery. The narrator begins by admitting a youthful dismissal of winkles—not for their taste, but because they lacked glamour or entertainment value. Winkles were plain, unfashionable, and didn’t belong in the world of flirtation or cigars, so they were ignored. That notion shifts the moment Mary enters the scene. Selling winkles with grace and beauty, she transforms the ordinary…-

Ballad: Bob Polter
Bob Polter stood as a familiar figure among the English working class—strong in stature, calloused from labor, and unrefined but honest in his dealings. His life moved in rhythm with pickaxes and pub nights, where smoke curled above battered tables and laughter echoed after long hours of toil. Though no stranger to ale and the occasional brawl, Bob wasn’t a man adrift in vice—his habits never fully consumed his character. He wasn’t perfect, but his choices, even flawed, were human and relatable.…-
