When Clara’s cash-strapped parents announce that they’re moving to the town’s posh West End so she can attend the exclusive girls’ schools there, she’s thrilled. That is, until she discovers that the move means economising by living in a tiny apartment in an area that puts her firmly on the bottom rung of the school’s social ladder.

Desperate to get out of the pokey apartment, Clara invents a story of nightly visitations by a creepy old woman in a rocking chair to convince her parents to move again. But one night, her sinister story becomes all too real…

The Unwelcome Visitor is the eighth spooky short story in the Chilling Childlore collection, written by award-winning author Victoria Williamson and available to purchase as an anthology.
