Welcome to the Annual Calm Scribe Halloween Short Story Contest

This year I am looking for multiple characters to be terrified by my new villain in, A Place to Call Home. The story follows a young couple as they move into their first home. They find an antique mirror left by the previous owners and set it aside to hang at a later time, unaware of the horror which is about to be unleashed in their new dream home.
