A Ghostly Paranormal Horror Short Story

Mel has a curse: she can see what's invisible to most humans. We call them ghosts and demons. She calls them living nightmares.

When she was five, she had her own ghost. A good ghost. She swore to never leave his side, but over time, he scared her. She pushed him away. She broke her promise.

Now well into her twenties, Mel meets her old ghost again. And this time, he's brought the darkness with him to prove his point…

…you don't break a promise with a ghost.
