The Pied Bull
272
The Pied Bull crouches beneath the shadow of centuries, its ancient beams creaking like the hushed whispers of long-dead patrons, while the faint echo of ghostly footsteps dances across the floorboards-an eerie reminder of a soldier who fell in a long-forgotten skirmish. As night swallows the light, murmurs wade through the air, snaking around the bar like the spirits of the past, drawing unwitting guests into a world where the line between the living and the dead blurs dangerously. Those who dare to stay awaken to the chilling sensation of unseen eyes piercing the gloom, knowing too late that in The Pied Bull, some guests never truly check out.
