THE GHOST MODERNIST

Chapter Fifteen: "What else can push a friendship to the breaking point? What else, beyond matters of sex and property, can snap that bond?

How about, even unintentionally, putting your best friend in harm’s way? OR forcing them into a situation that shakes their core beliefs, makes them question everything they felt to be foundational to their existence. Is that enough to break the connection? 

And if so, once they flee, do we blame them for it? After all, they aren’t bound by blood, so when it becomes too much, do we resent them for leaving us alone, once again?"

Remember, there are two types of people in this world.
The Haunters and the Haunted.

Chapter Thirteen: "...most of what we think is a haunting, is just frustration. Nine times out of ten, what we perceive as malicious supernatural intent, is simply a spirit who has gotten lost. They’re stuck in a liminal space, and they’re actions in our world, well, they’re just trying to get our attention..."

Chapter Thirteen: "We search. As humans, it is in our nature to seek answers, to formulate explanations to our greatest mysteries. Moreover, we want to rationalize our fears. But what scares us most?

Sure, there are the basics: fear of flying, fear of drowning, of spiders, snakes, and what might be hiding under the bed. We fear tight spaces and large crowds. We are frightened by germs and darkness. Each of these, of course, can be followed out to their logical conclusions—planes crash and boats sink. Snakes and spiders bite. That thing under your bed must have some nefarious intentions for you. Why else would it be hiding?"

Chapter Twelve: "What happens when old friends stir up the very thing you’ve been shying away from? Your safety net becomes the trap door. Your friends become not saviors, but accomplices. The solace you sought in your friends, is suddenly wiped away, and now, you’re going to have to face it, together. 

That is the operative word, right? Together. Now, your friends are culpable and invested, and together you can overcome anything. Can’t you?

But, let me ask you this: is strength really found in numbers?"

Chapter Eleven: "The ghost slid down the hallway, pulling energy and shadow along behind. With unshod feet, steps barely a whisper, the shape jittered and paused, first in one doorway then another, before continuing on. A twitch, then a jerk, as if confused about its purpose or direction, the ghost almost slipped into the master bedroom, but stopped after catching its reflection in the large, square mirror at the end of the hall. Worse, it caught Kate’s reflection as well, staring back from the opposing end of corridor."

Chapter Ten: "An obituary is like Hemingway’s iceberg. Only ten percent is visible on paper, just like what was visible to most of the people who knew you. They don’t know the full story, but, like the obituary, just the highlights. No one really knows what fills in those gaps. No one know what secrets were kept. Just like know one can ever really know what traces of ourselves we leave behind."

Chapter Nine: "Getting to know the neighbors doesn’t seem to be the priority it once was. What if, we no longer rush out to make friends with the neighbors, not because of what we might find out from them, but because we are scared about what they already know about us."
