Apparitions In The Mirror

Write a ghost story where the horror actually represents the protagonist’s repressed trauma.

Our reflection can sometimes reflect more than just physical appearance. It can often mirror unexpressed emotions, past trauma, and personal fears. In this story, the protagonist is haunted by a ghostly figure in the mirror that represents something deeply buried within them. This prompt encourages writers to explore the psychological implications of unaddressed real-life horrors.
