Annie leans forward, her eyes wide and voice trembling with excitement as she recounts her unsettling experience to Emily, who listens with rapt attention.
"You won't believe what I saw in the Tower of London. It was late, the corridors felt colder than usual, and then... I saw her. A woman in a Tudor-era gown, beheaded but carefully holding her own head. And she wore a necklace—a single letter 'B,'"
"Annie, are you sure it wasn't just a tour guide in costume or a trick of the light?"
Annie describes following the ghostly figure, her own heartbeat pounding in her ears as she moves along the cold, damp stones. The ghost glides ahead, her white dress stained with history, her eyes—though lifeless—filled with sorrow.
"She led me through winding halls, never looking back, until we reached a chapel. It was almost like she wanted to show me something,"
"Did you try to talk to her? Did she say anything at all?"
Annie recalls how the ghost paused at one grave, roses—deep red and impossibly fresh—resting atop the worn stone. The spectral queen gazes at the flowers, then slowly vanishes, leaving only a chill in the air.
"When she disappeared, I stood there, staring at the grave. That’s when I noticed the roses. It felt like a message, like she wanted me to understand who she was,"
"Red roses on a queen’s grave in the Tower... Annie, that must have been Anne Boleyn. The B necklace, the Tudor dress—it all fits,"
Emily and Annie pour over historical texts, piecing together clues. References to Anne Boleyn’s tragic fate and the legend of her ghostly appearances in the Tower emerge from the dusty pages.
"Look, Annie—here’s an eyewitness account from the 19th century. Someone else saw a headless woman with a 'B' necklace in the chapel,"
"That’s exactly what I saw! It wasn’t just my imagination. This means Anne Boleyn’s spirit really does linger where she was laid to rest,"
Emily lays out the evidence, and Annie realizes the chilling truth: every detail matches her experience. The roses, the grave, the necklace—all point to Anne Boleyn’s restless ghost.
"Annie, you actually saw her. The Queen herself. Your story could change what people think about the Tower forever,"
"It’s unbelievable, but it’s all here. I think she wanted us to remember her story, to honor her memory,"
Annie and Emily visit the chapel once more, moved by the experience and the history they uncovered. The moment feels sacred; the spirit of the past lingers, heavy yet hopeful.
"I wonder how many others have seen her and never realized the truth,"
"Maybe now, thanks to you, more people will remember Anne Boleyn not just as a ghost, but as a queen who changed England’s fate,"
