The Dark Pact of Griswold
In the small, gloomy village of Griswold, nestled deep in the heart of an ancient and foreboding forest, there lived a man of peculiar disposition. A man whose very existence seemed to be shrouded in the most sinister of mysteries.

The villagers, stricken with an inexplicable dread, whispered rumors about him, as if the very act of speaking his name would bring forth calamity.

The mirror showed a reflection that wasn't my own. I had been gifted the antique mirror from my great-grandmother's estate, but ever since it arrived in my apartment, I had a strange feeling about it. It was beautiful, ornate with gold trim and intricate carvings, but something about it made me uneasy. As I looked into it, my reflection stared back at me, but there was something different about the background. It was as if the reflection was standing in a completely different room than the one I was in.
