The Ghost Vanishes: Fantasy

I don't mind the headless riders so much. At least you know where you are with them. It's the ghosts that pretend to be real, that seem real in every way, but then disappear mysteriously and let you find out that there was a legend about them from however many years ago that I don't like. Do you know how much time I spent looking for vanishing girls in white before I figured that out? Sure, I moved here because I liked a challenge, and the hauntedest city in the West seemed like a good fit, not to mention the bonus hazard pay didn't hurt, but it still took me a while to get my feet under me and check the ghost database. Hell, it took me a while to figure out that there even was a database for ghosts. I think it was a "haze the new guy" deal. So figuring out that somebody real was really missing wasn't as easy as you might think, especially since she left such a light impression on life that she might as well have really been the ghost that we all assumed she was.


Inspiration: Danny Elfman - Sleepy Hollow film score
Story potential: High.
Notes: This feels like it could be really quite good.
