“The Shadow in the Mirror”

 


πŸŒ‘ Introduction

In Lahore’s old city, a family inherited a heavy Victorian mirror, said to be over a century old.
They placed it in the hallway. That was their first mistake.

πŸͺž The First Glimpse

At night, the youngest son noticed something strange—
his reflection lagged behind, blinking a second too late, smiling when he wasn’t.

πŸ‘ The Watching

Over the next weeks, the family began covering the mirror with a sheet.
But every morning, the sheet was found on the floor, and faint fingerprints appeared on the glass—too long, too thin, not belonging to anyone in the house.

πŸ’€ The Vanishing

One evening, the mother saw her own reflection raise its hand and wave… even though she hadn’t moved.
She screamed, but by the time the family rushed in, she was gone.
Only the mirror remained—her reflection still visible inside, pounding desperately on the other side of the glass.

❌ The Curse

The mirror was locked away in a storage room.
But locals whisper that if you stand in front of it long enough, your reflection begins to move differently…
and if you look away, it may refuse to follow.
