An excerpt from one of Tingle's stories The Rosary
He took a deep breath
to clear the distraction his focus on God as he continued to pray.
A soft giggle broke the silence; Father McKenna opened his
eyes and fell backward with a startled breath. A young woman stood behind the
stone cross her arms wrapped around it. Her petite fingers covering her mouth
to stifle her laughter.
Her eyes were dark sunken into her face as though it had
been a hundred years since she last slept. McKenna could feel darkness in her.
“The church is open for prayer. The rectory is private, my child.”
The girl, no thing… pushed from the stone, her tongue slowly
moved across her bottom lip. “Child? Priest… you’re not even old enough to be
my father.”
McKenna stilled as she stood over him. His eyes couldn’t
focus on her face, dizziness fell on him.
She… it, bent to bring her face to his and sniffed at the
air before him, then again at his neck. McKenna’s pulse jumped as she moved
closer, her lip curled wickedly. “I smell fear on your skin. Is your faith not
strong enough?”

Dark and hooky...in fact, I can feel the claws dig in. Also, neat that this is a collection of flash fiction, don't see too many of those.
