Altered Reflections (en Inglés) - DAVID E YORK

Altered Reflections

In these thirteen unsettling tales, reality doesn't break all at once, it fractures quietly.

A man takes a shortcut down a county road and finds himself walking beside versions of his own dead self.
A new apartment whispers at 3:33 a.m. through a wall that shouldn't hold anything at all.
A game show contestant wins more than they bargained for.
A dinner guest arrives at midnight claiming to be the Devil. But he isn't there to tempt, only to thank.

Across cursed roads, abandoned rooms, rural homesteads, pulp-news alleys, and quiet kitchens, ordinary people confront what waits beneath the surface: ambition that corrodes, faith that twists, obsession that consumes, and the parts of themselves they've worked hardest to deny.

These are not stories of monsters hiding in the dark.
They are stories of what happens when the dark holds up a mirror.

Not every reflection is what it appears.
