Any help!? :(Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Take any object in your house!. Then imagine how it can kill you!. Or how it can drive you insane, or how it can steal your deepest secrets, or lead you to do horrible things!. I recently finished a short story that came to me when, while staring into the mirror, I asked my self, "What if someone could see me through this!? What would they watch me do!? What if one mirror could show the reflection of another!?"!. The result was a disturbing psychological horror fiction called "the looking glass"!. Its best to do these kind of things very, very late at night, and continue writing until you're finished, around 1 or 2 AM!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Well obviously there is a main character!. First, boy or girl!. What about their personality!? Popular, weird!? What kind of situation do they get stuck in!? Does this person get stuck on a abandoned island, in a forbidden relationship, in the middle or a crime!. And then the solution depending on the problem!. And then the mystery end!.

You could make it so that the reader is unaware that it is a ghost!. Make a strong enough argument so that it will leave them wondering if it really was a ghost at the end of your story!.

Www@QuestionHome@Com After an unusually long day at the college, I was walking towards the subway station to take the next train to my home!. It started drizzling as I locked the library door and took on to the street!. It was a five minute walk so I did not bother to take my umbrella which was hanging at the *** end of the library!. Carefully coverung my new wrist watch with my other hand I hit the walkway!. It wasn't as bad!. I commended my decision, not to take the umbrella!. The trees were protecting me from rain!. I was planning my evening ahead in my mind, choosing my steps carefully on the white and black squares on the walkway!. I knew, I have to take care of my ailing grand mother and then set myself out again for the party at Rob's place!. David promised me to pick me at eleven!. Well I did not realised but it was coming down heavily now!. I quickly locked myself in a phone booth!. I was only a block away from the station!. So near yet so far!. It was not at all turning out to be a good end to a long day, I thought, as I closed my eyes, offered a silent prayer and requested HIM to stop the rain!. Then a slowly opened my eyes!. There she was!. All drenched, from head to toe!. Struggling to open the booth door, which I was holding very tightly from inside!. As I released the door, I realized I am going to get wet if she is coming inside!.
