THE MIRROR PEOPLE ARE REAL.
MY FRIEND MATT FRANKLIN WAS DEPRESSED
HE WISHED TO BE NOTHING

Thus starts the narrative by an anonymous author, scrawled across three pieces of notebook paper and the literal back of an envelope, talking about how the mirror people are replacing people the author knows.

Intended to be used in a 20th-century horror tabletop RPG like The Lost Bay, there are no statistics or out-of-character advice so it can be used however you like, even simply enjoyed as weird microfiction.

Based on all sorts of existing urban legends, old school folklore, and the 1987 song "Mirror People" by Love and Rockets. 

What Do You Get?

Images of the physical, handwritten artifacts, and a PDF of the same.  There are also high-contrast versions of the images and the PDF, which are probably better for printing and look a lot more like photocopies, if that's the look you want.

Because the handwriting (mine) is terrible (somewhat intentionally), there is a also a text file with a transcript and short descriptions of the artifacts. (Also good for accessibility!)

I may be adding images of the artifacts in a more worn/pulled out of the trash condition later.


CW: body snatching, food
