True story. During the civil war in 2006, after losing my father, I appear on the canvas as a 9yr child holding to my mother’s bed as it began to shake and float upward. I imagined that my father was the one embracing the bed, while ghosts tried to pull it away, and you see them trying to prevent him . That house, which had known nothing but constant horror, was sold in 2007 for a very low price.
