I remember reading a compilation of children’s/bedtime/scary stories as a child, one of which was about a girl and a boy who eventually got married. Throughout the short story, she had a black ribbon tied around her neck, but refuses to tell her (eventual) husband what it is. On her deathbed she shows him what it's for; she pulls the bow loose and her head falls off.
What is the title of this book?
Answer
The story is The Green Ribbon, from the book In a Dark, Dark Room and Other Scary Stories
You can listen to an audio version of it on Youtube here. There's also probably some different versions of the story that change the colour of the ribbon, depending on a few things.
