Phantoms Of The Clock

Welcome back into my CASTLE Kiddies!  This tale this evening, might just TICK YOU OFF a bit.  Try not to CLOCK someone ha-ha...
A cold-wind blew across the lawn of an old house, in the backwoods of southern-Kentucky, in September, 1891.  A fire crackled in the fireplace of the parlor.  A young man sat in a chairby the fire and read a paper quietly.  The young man looked up, at the grandfather-clock out, in the hallway.  He yawned.  "Well, Great-Grandpa, y'all are a good one. Leaving the home to me.  Thank y'all" he said, staring up, at a photo on the wall of an old man in a chair. The young man lit a cigar and smoked.  About a half an hour later, he went to the kitchen and the grandfather-clock chimed: "9:00 p.m." in the hall.  The young man heard a scraping in the pantry of the kitchen.  He opened the pantry and found a phantom inside.  The spirit was covered in green slime, floating in mid-air.  The ghost bore green-glowing eyes and its robe was long and dangling.  The face was black and its mouth oozed glowing-white-slime.  The phantom swung its white-hands and spoke in a low, moaning-voice to the young man: "Benjamin, beware!  I am y'all Great-Grandfather's personal doctor!  We are phantoms of the clock!".  Benjamin ran as fast as he could from the hooded-phantom.  Benjamin rushed into the parlor.  He took a swig from a bottle of Jim Beam Whiskey, and went to bed upstairs.  He slowly got to sleep and woke up later on.  Benjamin heard the clock chime, and another phantom came through the wall.  The specter was a shadow of a man in a coat and hat.  "I am the spirit of y'all Great-Grandfather!" the ghost told Benjamin.  "The ghost of my personal doctor shall give y'all a fortune I have!" the ghost continued.  It then disappeared and Benjamin slowly fell back asleep.  Later on, when the clock chimed again, Benjamin woke again and saw the slime-covered ghost appear at his bedside.  The phantom cackled and handed him a box of golden coins.  As Benjamin watched, the phantom vanished.  
Well, at least Benjamin didn't have to go TREASURE HAUNTING in the end.  He just had to IN-SCARE-IT his Great-Grandfather's fortune hee-hee.
