The Mirror's Deception: A Reflection That Wasn't My Own
It was just an ordinary day when I woke up and headed to the bathroom to brush my teeth. As I stood in front of the mirror, I caught a glimpse of my reflection, but something was off. It took me a moment to realize that the person staring back at me wasn't me at all.

The Man Inside the Statue
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn’t my own. At first I thought it was little more than a trick of the brain. A side effect of another weekend night filled with too much drinking and too little sleep. But the longer I stared at it, the more sure I became. It may have looked like me with its bedraggled dark hair, 5 o’clock shadow, and pointed ears, but something was wrong.

The House of Whispers
Part I: The Arrival A house unlike any other resided in the tranquil town of Willow's End. The area was surrounded in mystery and ominous legend and was known to the locals as the House of Whispers. It stood silently guard over the town from atop a hill encircled by gnarled trees.

Shattered Reality
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. It was the first time I had noticed it, and I was immediately unnerved. The figure staring back at me had a twisted, malevolent grin that seemed to mock my fear. I stepped back, trying to rationalize the illusion, but as I looked back, the reflection remained the same.

The Reflection
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. Once again, she stood on the other side. Smiling back at me. Although her smile seemed different today. It seemed to be a little... off, today. Behind her wasn't her usual floral pattern wallpaper like it always used to be. Instead, in place of the usual wallpaper I've grown used to see every day, was an open door to a whole new world. She just stood there. The reflection in the mirror right in front of me. Smile spread across her face. Thick dark brownish red lines had exited her eye sockets, falling down her cheeks until they reached the top of the top seam to her brightly colored white nightgown. Behind her I couldn't help but notice the colors looking brighter than ever. Usually, she was so dark. Darkened. Her hair. Her eyes. Her skin. Almost as if you couldn't own lightbulbs wherever she was. Dark. The only thing about this girl that wasn't dark was her nightgown. That brightly colored white nightgown. I always thought of it to be some sort of Victorian style; almost as if that could've been the time frame she was supposed to be in? Was it? Was she even a ghost? Could a ghost be a reflection in the mirror? She couldn't had been that old. She's young. She seems young. She seemed to resemble me.. in some way. The same hair. Similar facial features. She even had the exact same nose slope that I had.

Ghosts of Raynham Hall Museum in Oyster Bay, New York
In a little hamlet called Oyster Bay on the East Coast of the United States stands a home with a fascinating history and a few permanent incorporeal residents. The house is now called Raynham Hall Museum, and if that name sounds familiar, it's likely because you've heard about one of the most famous ghost photos: Brown Lady of Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England. The two places are often confused because of the nearly identical names, and it doesn't help that they were both built by families with the Townsend name and have reports of a ghost on a staircase. In fact, Raynham Hall Museum took its namesake from Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England, but the similarities between the two houses are only superficial, and the history and hauntings are quite different.

Wish
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. It was strange having to see this image. I had looked into this mirror thousands of times and never before seen this. The face in the mirror was ghoulish and looked like an ugly troll. Is that what I have become? I went to bed and closed my eyes. This must be a dream, tomorrow I will wake up and everything will be normal. The problem is, I had transformed in order to achieve my waking dreams.
