Horror Mirror Bleeds Reality
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. At first, I dismissed it as a trick of the light, but then the image began to shift, revealing an alternate reality that chilled me to the bone. The landscape beyond the mirror was dark and foreboding, with twisted trees and gnarled branches stretching towards a blood-red sky.

NightMirror v2
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. I knew at that moment I wasn't alone... In the mirror's reflection, behind my right shoulder, there was a creature staring at me through the mirror with a bloodthirsty expression. The creature was slightly bigger than me, it was navy green, and it's body was constructed from Marijuana buds and vines. It was terrifyingly grotesque. I was in my room, and the reflection showed my room too, except the walls of the room in the reflection were worn and torn with mold growing in some spots and boards showing in others. The room was also darker in the mirror's reflection and the single light fixture upon the ceiling was flickering.

SILENT TORTURE: THE CLOCK-TURNERS CURSE
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn’t my own. “It wasn’t my own…it wasn’t my own…it wasn’t my own…I swear.” Small jewel-like thorns grow from the veins glittering the ground like the dust from diamonds. Some say you can see your soul in the reflection, others say it steals a part of you. No one has ever lived long enough to tell. It’s well known that Wolf-Firs protect the heart of the tree. Each of them grows with splinters of mirrors that twist and braid themselves into the rings of the trees like ticks on a clock—they will last hundreds-of-thousands of years and are virtually indestructible. Many people die trying to steal a piece of their trunks—very valuable parts in these lands. BUT, if you ever spot a Wolf-Fir do not let it lure you in, do not…. for you might not escape the hands of time as each passing attempt traps you further and further behind, sinking it's poisonous teeth in you until you disappear forever.

Cashmere Hospital- The Man Made of Stars
"I can't get it out of my head. I don't know what to do. Mark said you might be able to help me, but I don't know how." I was sitting by the fountain in the outdoor garden, which most people used as a smoking area. The angel statue held a jug that constantly burbled out water, and I found the patter soothing. I came here to think sometimes, to collect my thoughts, and it was a great comfort to me since the incident with the elevator. I found myself here more and more often these days. Writing this book about the things I've seen and heard in Cashmere Hospital is taking a toll on me, and I think it's impossible to not wonder why I stay in the belly of the beast as I write more and more about the things that go on here.

Simple Simon Says
The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. At least, I didn’t think it was at first. As my hand and reflection met, making a ghostly hue around the fingers on the icy glass, I struggled to recall why I was here, cold and alone in this dark compartment.
