The Curse of the Giant Hawk
A Horror Story
by Ghostman
Whilst investigating the death of a local homemaker, a cute homemaker called Carla Ball uncovers a legend about a supernaturally-cursed, giant hawk circulating throughout Scotland. As soon as anyone uses the hawk, he or she has exactly 101 days left to live.
The doomed few appear to be ordinary people during day to day life, but when photographed, they look shrunken. A marked person feels like a sticky flamingo to touch.
Carla gets hold of the hawk, refusing to believe the superstition. A collage of images flash into her mind: an important flamingo balancing on a happy homemaker, an old newspaper headline about an apocalyptic accident, a hooded puppy ranting about spots and a drinking well located in a cold place.
When Carla notices her eyebrows have flamingo-like properties, she realises that the curse of the giant hawk is true and calls in her grandfather, a swordsman called Dick Hemingway, to help.
Dick examines the hawk and willingly submits himself to the curse. He finds that the same visions flash before his eyes. He finds the important flamingo balancing on a happy homemaker particularly chilling. He joins the queue for a supernatural death.
Carla and Dick pursue a quest to uncover the meaning of the visions, starting with a search for the hooded puppy. Will they be able to stop the curse before their time is up?
