Comment from Jonesy
Real or fake? Interesting question, really. Guess it comes to faith, which is easy for many. They want to believe so they've convinced themselves something that can't be proven is real.
Getting back to the post, it's well done. Micro is hard, but the author did exceptionally well.

Thank you for such a fine review.
Comment from Bobbi22
Your short story tells of the experience of a seance including the skepticism of the planted expert. Very well written. Good luck in the contest.

A good, spooky, start to a story. Too bad the 55 word limit is in force here. I never been to a seance, but I'm told you have described this one well with your little write. Good luck in the contest!

Yeah, I believe there is certain things you just should mess with. The dead is one of those. An interesting story that is well told and well presented. Good Luck!

Thank you so much.
Comment from Glasstruth
Very mysterious and hauntingly excellent. This could easily be a poem if you broke it up a bit. Funny, what we can't understand we think it's a trick. You did superbly for 55 words. Thanks for sharing. Les

Hey, that's a good idea. One very early reviewer said it read like a poem. So I edit it until it was prose. I'd wondered what I would do with this little write once the contest was over. And you just said it. I'll turn it back to a poem. Gee thanks Glasstruth.
Comment from Mrs Jones
Excellent punch line. It's not easy to write in 55 words. Good luck in the competition with this "different" story. I know all psychics are not fake but, I have my doubts abouts mediums.
Well done
Cheers

This was brief but powerful. I think seances can be real, but I don't advocate for them. Anyway, you grip your readers with brevity, which can be a hard thing to do. Wonderful job. :)

I like how you used the white eyes and foaming with such few words available to grab the readers attention and pulls them in. Great job with only 55 words

Comment from STEPHEN A CARTER
Houdini the famous escape artist, dedicated his short life to exposing fakirs of every stripe. Nor once did he find any instance where no trickery or sleight of hand, etc. was used. As to the piece, it is well conceived in the arena of the supernatural and the occurrence of 'strange' events is most alluring.(55 words)

Thank you for your review. Some people believe that when it comes to Seance, the word "Fake" is skating on then ice. Because, as they claim, it's "fake" because it's not the dead relatives they're summoning, and not "fake" because there are no tricks but demons posing as relatives. But I can't prove any of this stuff. LOL I'm just having fun getting the feedback from the writing of it.

A powerful write. Excellent use of few words. You have the ability to impact much with little. It, for me, is not about the reality of s©ances but rather your ability to take me into a scene with your allotted fifty-five words. You've truly done that so bravo! and good luck in the contest...
