“Do you really think I’ve been murdered?” Michael’s voice was soft, but I still heard it from across the bedroom. He stood in the doorway with a rather solemn expression. Words failed me. Would he really want to hear the answer? If it were me, would I want to know if someone killed me? Maybe.
I took a deep breath. “I’ll be honest with you. It doesn’t look good. The fact that no one knows you’re dead yet makes me worry that your death might have been intentional.”
I stepped closer to him, staring all the way up into his face. “But if you want the truth, I don’t think the reason you died was your fault. You’re a pain in the ass, but you’re a good guy. I’m sorry this happened to you.”
He gazed at me for a handful of seconds before nodding and his hair slid forward into his eyes. For some reason, it was the first time Michael seemed human. He was always so amiable and confident that seeing him be vulnerable felt odd.
“Thank you.”
“Come on. Let’s go find some answers.”

“Ahem," a voice said behind me. I didn't need to turn around to know it was Judith, my once human, but now poltergeist mother-in-law. I had once joked with Bella that if anyone hated me enough to come back from the dead to haunt me, it would have been her mom. Seems the joke was on me, because that's exactly what she did.”

“We haven’t actually laid eyes on Lila yet, but I can hear her moving around in the room next door, noisy but unseen. Like a very entitled, very tortured poltergeist. I’m half afraid she’ll float through the wall at any minute.”

“Few people are denied agency as much as a teenage girl: She is dismissed, belittled, cut down to size at every turn. Her pleas for help are derided as 'attention seeking," and Heaven help her should she dare come forward with stories of abuse at the hands of someone who has power over her – namely, nearly everyone. Cutting, eating disorders, and other types of self-harm are some of the more earthbound cries for help, and at the other, extreme end of the spectrum
dwells the poltergeist.”

“Making a poltergeist can be a simple recipe: allow a girl to have her first menstrual period, tell her she is a naughty girl for thinking dirty thoughts, punish her, bore her, disenfranchise her from her life, and wait. It is not a universal outcome. More than likely, you will summon nothing more than a moody teenager who slams her bedroom door and wishes aloud she had never been born. In exceptional cases, the dishes will fly off the shelves.”

“A poltergeist is the byproduct of a repressed girl (and, yes, we are typically dealing with young girls; boys tend to feel more in control and have coping mechanisms beyond psychokinesis).”

“The poltergeist is keen on as much destructive mischief as possible. It is not discriminatory. It will attack the girl who shaped it.”

“A poltergeist is not within the girl's control. That is a crucial point: the girl made it and charged it, but she has no idea that she did. Once called forth, the poltergeist does as it wishes.”

“Sudden death can cause unrest. If the spirit died with a grudge, that could cause problems for the living.”

“Ghost Sonnet (Parapsychology 101)
Do you believe in ghosts, someone asked.
Plenty mysteries to unfold, I replied.
Most cases, commoner curiosity gives in,
supernatural explanation is convenient.
Thus mysteries become paranormal,
despite being born of a natural world.
Question is not, is there an explanation,
but how far are you willing to unravel!
In short, there is no supernatural,
only natural yet to be understood.
If human mind perseveres long enough,
every mystery soon reveals its truth.
Bluntly put, there is no ghastlier
ghost than a wicked personality.
We are the gods, we are the goblins,
of our own elaborate story.”
