This is a mystery , true or not true? The age old question of the seance. This was a very good entry and told a scary story. I have read a few other entries, I have one myself, and they are all really good. Good luck in the contest, I think we are all going to need it.

I would say completely fake as the dead can't talk. I counted 55 words exactly! Great artwork choice for this story. Enjoyed!

This is so intriguing! Now, where do we go from here? I am ready for this ride. "She foams from the mouth like a rabid dog." You have so much action and movement in so little space. This is just masterful. I wish I had more stars to share.

A very interesting story. I thought, how good can a story be being only a small paragraph. You have used each word with power. Thank you

I'm sure that you know seances are real, and the spirits and demons that can be called upon during one even worst. I liked the mystic mystery to your 55 word story. It had the air of creepiness needed to enhance the subjects mood. However, I've never seen a medium foam at the mouth, unless she was pulling a fast one or possessed. Kudos. ;)

    Thank you for this fine review. I've never seen a Seance. I was just using my imagination about the foaming.

Good subject, and one that everyone has different ideas about. Love the artwork and you've written it well. Good set-up with the thumping and the foaming mouth, great descriptions for the reader.

aaah, this is such a difficult prompt amahra! You've given us a good summary, but not a good "story" with a beginning, middle and end and I THINK that's what they're looking for in this piece. But I could be totally wrong! :)S

I know how hard it is with such little words to stage an entire scene. So well done. The reader get s a great image of the action and characters present.

Your description, although brief, of what goes on in a seance tells what goes on. The trickery, the sleigh of hand like a magician and gullible people taking it all in.
A pity but it happens.

Well-crafted story. You did the plot well for having to develop it within a 55-word constraint. All-in-all, a pretty decent work which paints a fairly vivid word picture.
