Firedrops - Richard Reeve
[For Meg:]
This place had always been eerie; closed up many years ago because of "strange goings on" people tended to keep away from the old buildings. Then, late one night a spinning wheel appeared on an upper floor, sending orange sparks high into the air. It had disappeared before the sunrise, but not before people had noticed. No-one knew what it was, and apparently there was no evidence when the building was searched the following day. Over the ensuing few months the phenomenon reoccurred several times and was now fast becoming a local attraction for those who dared to visit. Some swore it was getting brighter.
Late one night, observers were astonished to see a shadowy figure standing stock still underneath the sparking wheel. Bizarrely, he was holding what appeared to be a regular, umbrella, bright red in color, to protect him from the hot sparks. As he looked up the few onlookers gasped - his eyes seemed to be burning like fire...
