In   this story two children, through no fault of their own, run afoul of a   soucouyant, the Southern Caribbean cousin of the vampire.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix   = o ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\"   \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp class=\"MsoBodyText\" style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 6pt\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"2\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Arial\"\u003eThere are still those living today that fear the soucouyant. It’s   said she lives in that abandoned house at the end of the road, that she comes   out after the sun goes down, when the bats replace the birds on the trees. She   sheds her skin, turns into a ball of fire as she flies into the dark, descending   finally as a blood devouring animal, seeking out young prey. It’s also said that   you can keep a soucouyant away from your door by dropping rice in front of it.   She cannot enter without counting each and every grain and she’s too impatient   to do that, so she moves on to seek a victim   elsewhere.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp class=\"MsoBodyText\" style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 6pt\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"2\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Arial\"\u003eBut can you kill a soucouyant once she is on your trail? That’s the   question young Carolina and her friend Arty have to find the answer to, because   Carolina has something a soucouyant wants, but she doesn’t know it. She knows   only that an evil old horror she calls the Night Witch is after her. And it   appears that she and Arty are alone in their stand against it. However, unknown   to her, her estranged father, who unwittingly set the beast on her, is doing his   level best to draw the thing away.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp class=\"MsoBodyText\" style=\"MARGIN: 0in 0in 6pt\"\u003e\u003cfont size=\"2\"\u003e\u003cfont face=\"Arial\"\u003eWill he succeed?
