Mirror of Lies
When Sofia moved into her grandmother’s old apartment, she expected dust, silence, and memories. What she did not expect was the mirror. It stood in the corner of the bedroom, tall and antique, framed in dark wood carved with twisting vines and tiny, watchful faces. Her grandmother had always kept a white sheet over it, something Sofia had found odd as a child. Now, standing alone in the dim room, she pulled the sheet away and uncovered the glass. At first, it reflected exactly what it should: her tired face, the half-unpacked boxes behind her, the pale evening light filtering through thin curtains. Nothing unusual. Nothing threatening.

The Last Train Home. AI-Generated.
Daniel had never liked taking the late train, but that night he had no choice. Work had kept him longer than expected, and the last train departing from the nearly deserted station was his only way home.

At least the ride would be short.

Day 9: Entry two. Content Warning.
Day eight isn’t lost; I couldn’t write. The sensation was so cold. I spoke to Harvest-woman April, who focused more on telling me she isn’t that kind of doctor. I slipped up stating that I could’ve been, and on occasions, was for emphasis, which sucked her in until she asked me what I thought of the nature of my illness. Her terms carried something I wasn’t expecting but understood. A certain defeated curiosity; ‘I mean, if I don’t have to get up, I’ll look into it as a kind of help.' Started with my past, which she’s getting none of, whether she knows or not, and switched effortlessly into second opinions for which I had loads of examples. Before Wolfman Patrick stole me away, she said she’ll get back to me and my case. Her smile said a hint of hypocritical oath might still flicker, but the concealing of her horror of the topics said patience wasn’t sharp enough for the private practice bedside manner. Coldman Jason needed a word.

The Poltergeist Curse Is a Myth — And It’s Harming Real Legacies
I’ve always been mildly annoyed by the so-called Poltergeist curse. YouTube video essays love it. The ominous music. The hushed voices. The grave respectability as they recount tragedies that happened to real people — real lives reduced to spooky footnotes for clicks.
