Very well written. Creepy. I got real invested in the story... then END. I did not get the ending of the story?  

Just gonna echo what BarryJohn said. Didn’t get the ending at all.
But a good story.

The story definitely drew me in; as I thought about the story I kept coming back to the line:

> A shadowy woman hovering above a bunch of shocked stick figure faces.

I think that line is key to the ending, I took this as the shadowy woman/spirit (could be the mother from other drawings) killed RAYMOND and NATASHA. Leaving behind the camera and backpack.

The story definitely creates suspense and tension. Great job.

Hi Sean,

I was drawn in, and enjoyed hanging out with these two in the house, exploring and freaking each other out, but I found the ending too abrupt. I got that the ghost got them and then drew it's stick figure picture to show they were now dead, which in itself is very original and creepy.

I'm guessing with the ending the image on the wall changes and we see the mother stick figure is now more of a shadow and has obviously killed her husband and child. And is now going to kill them?

Maybe you could have the mother stick figure move in the pictures after they have looked at them....then we will know for sure they are in trouble.  

Cheers K
