Welcome back to Worlds Without Warning. This week, Jon Negroni reads aloud his new paranormal contemporary fiction story, "One Good Ghost." Set at a beachside wedding, this is a tale where past and present collide when a bridesmaid encounters her brother's dead ex-fiancée in a bathroom mirror. Blending supernatural elements with sharp family dynamics and emotional realism, the story explores love, loss, and the complicated ghosts we carry, even into new beginnings.
You can find the written version of "One Good Ghost" right here.
