The cart driver was sure that the fog thickened within minutes of crossing the cursed bridge. He rarely took this route, but had to today, as he was late for his delivery. Suddenly, his horses neighed violently. He vaguely saw the figure of a woman. As he drew closer, the woman said, “Will you please give me a ride in your cart?” Seeing how foggy and cold it was, the cart driver agreed. He noticed that she was extremely beautiful, but something about her disturbed him. “Lady, what were you doing in a place like this?” he asked. “I was hungry,” replied the woman, looking hard at him. The cart driver was very scared. He turned to look at her and noticed her sharp teeth. He whipped the horses and rode the cart sideways. As the lady fell off his cart, he drove off in speed. The next day, he heard about a vampire with sharp teeth who haunted that bridge. Then, he realised he had been lucky to get away.
