You sure said a mouthful in just fifty-five short, concise words. I don't know if people realize just how hard it is to tell a story, complete with a gripping start, a captive middle, then sum it all up with a gut-wrenching ending, in less than sixty words.
You did an exceptional job of doing just that here. Spooky stuff...

A great job of creating atmosphere-- although foaming at the mouth made me think of a rabid dog. This reads like a summary of a novel about the paranormal. Also poses an interesting question.

Well, hard to confirm if Seance are real or fake, but there are so much talk on them. This is a well done entry for this 55 words fiction contest. Good luck.

This is interesting. I've never believed in these things, on the other hand they might be have some truth in it.
In those 55 words you managed to tell a lot that makes your reader think.

I wish you good luck in the contest.

The writer does a good job of getting the message across. The words give life to the photo. The writer does a good job of tapping into the mind of the reader as this piece holds my attention from start to finish.

I took part in a seance 'once' when I was 17 and believe me it was pretty scary. I think it is best not to dabble with things we do not understand. well delivered short write, as required, so best of luck in comp. Indie

    Ok. I'll look for it. I wrote a manuscript about a Seance. I'd like to see how closely my imagination comes to your experience.

amahra,

This is an interesting and engaging situation set in fifty-five words or less. The question remains, was the appearance of the lady's son real or fake? Even the planted expert was confused. It is an interesting read.

told a good little story in 55 words, which is difficult to do. ive entered the 55 word contest too, so i dont want to wish you too much good luck! in author notes you mention that the undead speak. isnt that because if you're un dead you're alive? makes sense.

    According to some legends, spirits are not considered as being alive, yet..they exist. Thank you for the review. Good luck in the contest.
