The Phantom’s Message

Write an unsettling story where the protagonist’s deceased loved ones convey a message through a ghost.

This prompt invites you to blend the supernatural with the emotional. The story, not-so-linear, explores the connection between the protagonist and a ghost – a manifestation of their deceased loved one. This spectral figure is trying to convey a message from the other side – what is it? What is the meaning behind it, and how does your main character react and deal with it? In unraveling the truth, your character may confront their unresolved grief, guilt, or even a dark family secret.
