Talk:Hauntings Don't Exist (Original)/@comment-7706473-20140531222807

Interesting story. I ended up creating my own ending, actually - that the narrator was telling this story convincingly to their classmates, and when Billy Costello left to investigate, in a fit of rage that their fiction wasn't believed, the narrator... Made sure the 'hauntings' got him.

That being said, this works well enough as a supernatural pasta as well; the various spectres are pretty weird, and some are genuinely scary - the handless boyfriend was great, because not only was their hand recently discovered, it was nearby; indicating to me at least that whatever ghosts - or non-ghosts - had started this in the first place, they'd done it recently. I also felt that the narrator's reaction was very believable.

The one question that remains is - if the narrator is telling the truth, I wonder why they led the narrator of Nightmare Fuel down such a dark road..? Misery loves company, perhaps?
