I continued my journey to Houghton and began to train for the priesthood. I did become a priest, but not for long—though that’s another story. But as a young man of twenty, I eventually went to Chipenden and asked Henry Horrocks if he would train me as a spook.

He took awhile to make up his mind. Could you blame him? After all, it had taken me a long time to change mine! I was far older than the boys he usually trained. But he remembered what I’d done back in that dark cottage when we’d faced the dangerous witch. That finally decided him.

I became his apprentice. His last one. Finally, after his death, I inherited his house at Chipenden and began working as a spook from there. Now, after all these years, I’m training Tom Ward. He’ll be my last apprentice. The house will belong to him, and he’ll be the new spook. Our work will go on. Someone has to fight the dark.
