The Friendly Neighbourhood Ghost...

Christopher Allen

Mat the mailman was a beloved figure in his town, known for his friendly nature and dedication to his job. For most of his life, he delivered mail and parcels, building strong connections with everyone he met, from children to adults and even their pets. When he was forced to retire, Mat's world fell apart. He lost his sense of purpose and his sadness was so profound that he passed away shortly after. 
However, his story didn't end there. In heaven, the angels, moved by his love for his community, granted him a special gift: the ability to return to his town as a ghost and continue his work. As the “Friendly Neighbourhood Ghost,” Mat resumed his mail delivery, much to the bewilderment of the postal company, who couldn’t understand how the mail was being delivered without an employee. 
Some of the children Mat had known, now adults, recognized their old friend and were overjoyed, introducing him to their own children. Mat, in his ghostly form, also became a guardian of the town, protecting its residents and their pets from harm. He became a local legend, a symbol of enduring friendship and kindness, a not-so-spooky ghost who just wanted to make friends.
