Hi I have just joined and I am looking for one of Mary Danby's stories I read many years ago about a boy called Tim who lived in the Victorian era at a school. It starts off with 'when the moon peers in through the window' and talks about a girl going to an older part of her school and seeing a boy in a red jersey vanishing by a cupboard. Two teachers go to investigate after schoo and find a diary in a hidden cupboard where they almost get trapped. The diary is written by the Victorian headmaster about Tim and how he froze to death.
If anyone knows this story, can they tell me what it is, and what book it was in please? Many thanks.

Hi aura, thanks for joining and i hope you enjoy your time with us. I've a feeling the story might be The Rocking Horse Room, but you're best to wait until friend Noose next looks in as he is editing Party Pieces - The Horror Fiction of Mary Danby and is the man most likely to know!

Ha! The Third Armada Book is one I have missing - and is being sent to me by Mary to scan in for the collection, but if memory serves, it should be The Rocking Horse Room. Will let you know in due course.
