A little wander through the realms of the improbable. Or maybe a wander into the possibility that those who have passed-on might be able to tamper with the lives of the living. No actually ghostly apparitions, more the possible influence or thoughts they might introduce into the unconscious mind.

This is what some people might refer to as a "Seasonal Story." It has undergone some slight modification since it first appeared on the Internet several years ago. I'm afraid that I cannot recall whether those changes have not been proofread, but time waits for no man.
