Shadow, feels like the kind of story where it’s the reverse of “don’t bite the hand that feeds you”

Ooh the mirror mirror story was trippy as. Really makes you reflect on what you want in life and how you want to achieve it, pun intended.

“You won’t forget what has happened nor should you try. There are things in the world best not understood. Things too foul to be given names. Let it return to the darkness.”

“waiting…this whole time. Waiting for me to come home…knew I couldn’t stay away forever..”

“I’d been dealing with a lot at home. You remember…Ever seen something that you shouldn’t have? Something you just know instinctually, in your heart that it’s wrong? And now you’ve seen it...you can never go back to how it was before. Does that make any sense?”

“You were gone. You could have stayed gone.” “Curiosity got the better of me, I guess. Figured after 13 years it might be safe to come home…Trust me when I say I didn’t have a choice. I only did what I thought was best at the time.”
“Look I don’t know what you went through. I’m not even sure I want to. If you weren’t ready to deal with the consequences, maybe you shouldn’t have returned.”

“Most people are afraid of things they don’t understand…”

“Then people turn the suffering of women into entertainments like ghost stories. Probably due to the limitation of medical care and welfare at the time.”
“The ghost of a woman who was abused by society and her family”.

Damn spitting facts. “Abused female comes back to haunt you…ghosts cursing the living because of asshole men…the result of social factors and misconceptions like feudalism, femicide and lookism. It’s so typical to say that the woman lost her mind but it’s just a misconception about mental illness.”

Boyyyy why are we surprised ghostly things appear in your home if you take home creepy movie posters and use them as wallpaper
