The story of a woman haunted by the ghost of a dead lover whose own pain led her to hurt others. A story about the complex feelings of knowing the partner whose words cut so deep is hurting, too, and not knowing what to do with that grief when she's gone--grief both for the life they lived together, and for a life cut too short.
This is not a love story. It's a story about love gone wrong.
"Ghosts We Used to Love" is a 4,000 word horror short story about a lost love--and how hard it is to grieve when that person hurt you. It is inspired by true events about intimate partner abuse, so please read with caution.
