A long flight of dark stairs led to the third floor.

She stepped into the front hall and peered up the dark stairs.

She got it, and they went down the dark stairs.

He took up a black leather case, put on his hat, and they went down the dark stairs into the street.

He remembered going up the dark stairs, desire running in him like a river.

I pushed through into the lower part of the house and up the dark stairs.

He went back up the dark stairs to the second floor, and opened the door to the bedroom.

Making no sound that I could hear, she vanished down the dark stairs.

The door closed behind him, and there was nowhere to go but down the dark stairs.

There might well be a knife on a dark stair for me!
