1883 Umbrella
Closed That Umbrella In The House
Hartel just inherited their family heirloom, The 1883 Umbrella. It was an antique umbrella, it was the very first umbrella made by Samuel Fox in 1853. This Umbrella was worth a million dollars if Hartel should sell it.
1883 The first Curse
Samuel Fox ‘s relative stole the very first umbrella he made. Peter, stole his great Uncle’s umbrella so he can sell it and pay the debt he owe. This umbrella was never sold by his uncle caused the handle was made from a leprechaun’s cane . The leprechaun wanted the cane back and cursed the umbrella. It was only used as a prototype. The 1883 Umbrella handle was made with the Leprechaun’s cane, that was cursed. The Leprechaun cursed the Umbrella cause he regret giving up his cane. Leprechaun are generous but also scarily selfish.
Ever since Peter stole the umbrella, the person who used it and leave it open inside a house or a building, a closed family member would die within a year. No one made any connection with the umbrella, until the owner of the umbrella left it open in the house three times and the owner just die at the spot with the open umbrella in his hand.
The umbrella comes with a note everytime it was passed down to a relative:
Do not keep this Umbrella open inside a house
Death will come upon you or your love one

That was interesting, good job
Very good Mariann
Just wondering why someone just don't burn the darn thing. Oops i clicked heart #13. oh dear.
Yup. Never open an umbrella in the house. Well done, Mariann
So original - love the leprechaun cane handle. I'd probably leave mine in the car.
Nice way to do this one. Good luck.
I would have kept it in a storage space 😆❤️💯📝Great Article ❗
Oooo, made from Leprechaun's cane! That was so fascinating! You're so creative!
Fabulous!!! Fantastic entry into the challenge!!! Loved it!!!♥️♥️💕
Love this take on the challenge, Mariann! So intriguing!! 🤗
And here I thought it was bad luck to open an umbrella inside because you could poke someone's eye out. Who knew there was a leprechaun involved?
Dear Ms. Mariann - My British BFF Doc Sherwood and Wife "Last Valentine" would refer to a 'Rain-Catcher' as a "Brolly" - You being Bilingual - who says we Yanks and Brits speak the same language - You are a terrific StoryTeller - Arigato - J-Bud
Love your take on the challenge, great story
Loved this story! Absolutely amazing!
