The Highwayman
A Scare at Bedtime Series
Some injustices are so profound they shatter the barrier between life and death...
In 1880, nineteen-year-old Oliver Feeney leaves his quiet farm in County Kilkenny for the first time, excited to visit his sister Mary in Dublin. Within hours of his arrival, a desperate criminal points at him in a crowd and declares him to be James Freney, Ireland's most notorious highwayman.
Despite Oliver's desperate pleas of innocence, the merciless Judge Blackwood sentences him to hang that very afternoon. No investigation. No evidence. No mercy. Just the word of a lying criminal and a judge who values convictions over truth.
Oliver dies innocent, screaming his truth to a crowd that won't listen.
But death is not the end.
When Oliver's body vanishes from the morgue, dark rumors begin to spread. A ghostly highwayman is attacking travelers on the roads outside Dublin, a pale figure with rope burns on his neck, riding a black horse through the mist. He targets only those who abuse their power: corrupt magistrates, cruel landlords, those who prey on the weak.
His victims all report the same chilling question before he strikes: "Remember me?"
As Judge Blackwood and his family meet their terrifying fates, Mary desperately searches for her brother, hoping to save what's left of the gentle boy she knew. But Oliver has been transformed by injustice into something dark and eternal, a vengeful spirit cursed to roam Ireland's roads forever, dispensing his own brutal justice to those who destroy innocent lives.
The Highwayman is a haunting tale of injustice, revenge, and the terrible price of both. Based on the dark realities of 19th-century judicial cruelty, this chilling story blurs the line between historical horror and supernatural legend.
The innocent have nothing to fear. But the guilty should stay off lonely roads after dark.
Because Oliver Feeney is still out there. Still hunting. Still asking his question.
And if he's asking you, it means he already knows the answer.
