Based on a real dream, this is a story of horror, suspense, and a darkness that refuses to stay in dreams.

a short story from Allan's Short Scary Stories for the Soul When a newly divorced father moves his nine‑year‑old daughter into a quiet farmhouse, he hopes the silence will heal them. But the house is wrong. The shadows linger too long. The mirrors reflect things that shouldn't exist. And at night, something small and patient crawls just out of sight. After his daughter wakes screaming about a "shadow inside a shadow," he checks under her bed to calm her fears... and finds a version of her that should not be there.

And once it chooses a face, it never gives it back.
