The Mirror That Eats Faces by Bob Story
Riley Carver thought moving to the forgotten town of Blackwater Bend would be boring. He was wrong.
In the dusty attic of his inherited Victorian house waits a tall, obsidian-dark mirror. No cracks. No dust. Just perfect black glass that seems to drink the light instead of reflecting it.
At first, Riley's reflection copies him perfectly. Then it starts smiling when he isn't. Then it starts bleeding when he isn't. Then pieces of Riley's face begin to disappear-slowly, painlessly, like someone is erasing him one feature at a time.
The mirror isn't haunted. It's hungry.
And it doesn't want to possess Riley. It wants to become him.
Look once. Look twice. Then never look again.
Because once the mirror has your face... it keeps the rest.
A chilling, twice-as-dark twist on classic Goosebumps-style horror for readers who dare to stare a little too long.
Perfect for ages 11-14 (and brave adults).
Your reflection isn't copying you anymore. It's replacing you. One piece at a time.
