The Colonel and Juliet in the Ghostly House

A narrator recalls meeting Colonel Schuyler at dusk as his past love Juliet and Orrin Day become entangled in a doomed house project. After Juliet and Orrin vanish under a shadowed staircase, the town mourns, a grave is dug, and the Colonel’s silence hints at a dark crime. The narrator contemplates guilt, fate, and a cursed stone house that may never be finished.
