A mirror reflecting. Nothing abnormal. That is how mirrors work. Right?
Recently, I had come across a garage sale. An old man had put up the sale, it was not going well. No customers, and the lawn was filled with junk. I exited my car and decided to check it out. Among all the balderdash objects for sale I noticed a mirror priced at peanuts. It’s reflection showed the shed. A lady went inside it, followed by the old man, axe in hand.
“Please pay in the shed.”
I ran away before the old man could say or do anymore.

I was going to say looking at that SUPER creepy photo I was already on high alert. Dang, that actually was even creepier because of all the things you didn’t say.

I think running away was the most sensible option! I like the way you show us the axe and leave it up to us to imagine the blood…
