In the attic of an old Victorian mansion, Emily discovered an ornate mirror covered in dust and cobwebs. As she wiped away the grime, her reflection seemed to ripple, as if something lurked behind the glass. That night, as Emily lay in bed, she heard whispers echoing from the attic. Curiosity overcoming fear, she crept upstairs to investigate. The mirror beckoned her, its surface shimmering with an otherworldly light. As Emily drew closer, her reflection twisted into a grotesque figure with hollow eyes and a sinister grin. Terror froze her in place as the mirror began to pull her in, its dark secrets consuming her soul. In the morning, the mansion stood silent, its attic empty save for the haunted mirror, waiting for its next victim.
