Disturbing Mirror Message From Beyond

[said_scarlett]

I apologize for the spam, but this needed it's own entry.

There is another entry in the saga of the Damn Dirty Hippies. One of us finally took a shower in the morning. We've been doing it at night, and it's dark because the lights are...well....what they are. So it took us until now to see this....

A message in the steam, left for us - we assume - by the Damn Dirty Hippies. We hope. It's on the mirror, clear as day, and if my camera hadn't gotten damaged in the move I'd photograph it. Nija called me in to see it, looking pale, and I confess I shivered a bit too when I saw it.

The message says only 'I'm sorry for you'.

A bit disturbing, eh? Good thing we did call this place Silent Hill. But now we're trying to determine what this message means. Since...well...it could be a variety of things.

What do you think the disturbing mirror message from beyond is trying to tell us?

I picked the silly one because it's pretty creepy and makes me shiver to think about so hey, silly one to the rescue.

*hugs* to both of you.

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it really did look like something out of a horror movie. Just when we thought there was nothing left to find....

[rosehiptea.livejournal.com]

That is freaky. Your Henry icon is eerily appropriate.

I'm fairly sure it's the cleaning one though.

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

And the first thing poor Nija saw when she woke up properly! Gah.

They couldn't have just left a little note tucked into one of their inhumanly disgusting drawers, could they....

[laverinth.livejournal.com]

It's possible it wasn't left for you at all, but was something left around from before the last owners moved out. Something someone they knew left them... any manner of things.

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

That'd be...really weird, if it's been there in finger oil for over two years. And almost creepier, thinking that these people never even wiped off their damn mirror once. *shudders*

[firebird-88.livejournal.com]

DDDDDD: *SCARED*

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

YES VERY MUCH SO!

[ex-talia-sp.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure its the cleaning one. Although I prolly would have freaked out had I been the one to find it there.

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Which...adds a whole new level of WTF to these people. They know the left an epic mess, and they....feel bad we have to clean it? THEN WHY LEAVE IT?!?!?!

Yeah, it was...very creepy.

[nijiirono.livejournal.com]

I think it's a combination, but I picked the first as that seems to weight the heaviest ;)

The Hippies were, in fact, poltergeists. Messy ones. Who didn't like meat eaters. Or the house.

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

At this point, we'd prefer good old honest supernatural activity to....these people.

[colortheory.livejournal.com]

After what I've heard of the previous owners, I'm either going for "they didn't wipe off their mirror for two years" or "we're preachy neopagan uber-vegans who left propaganda stickers in our small daughter's bedroom and treat anyone who doesn't share our beliefs with disdain or hostility." I went with option two because it was more fun to write. :D

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the second one is insanely likely.

Though, on further thought, there was a lizard that lived in their bathroom....maybe he left us the message....

[magical-poof.livejournal.com]

... So.... Creepy...

-shudder-

I would die of fright before I lived in that house... And to think I was freaked out because my bedroom in my old house had a secret door that led to the master bedroom's closet (and it's not a walk-in closet) -- though it was locked and we could never get it open. o___o

Plus my old bathroom was ridiuclously designed so you could watch yourself in the mirror while you took a shower, but not while you brushed your teeth. You could also watch yourself take a shit thanks to the mirror on the bathroom door.

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

They couldn't just leave a note like normal people, clearly. :/

It's not so bad, really, now that it's been cleaned up (mostly.) It's very cozy and homy, if one ignores the mysterious mirror message... ;)

Oh man, I hate bathrooms designed like that. My grandparents had a similar set up.

[ladydreamer.livejournal.com]

That is pretty creepy. Keep an ear out for doors opening and closing ;)

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

It's funny you mention that, since the way house is set up means the hallways door ends up slamming shut due to a draft pretty often. :D

[lokogato.livejournal.com]

O___O

Th-that's terrifying. But most likely one of the non-supernatural causes. REAL CLASSY, THESE HIPPIES. :|

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

We'd prefer supernatural causes, really.

[ecchipiro.livejournal.com]

I tend to go with the cleaning one.

[sinick.livejournal.com]

Or possibly...

o You waste time/soap/water having showers, we don't, neener neener neener!

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Definitely a very strong possibility! :D

[xochiquetzl]

Maybe it's a leftover from some kind of domestic drama. Maybe that's Damn Dirty Hippy for "I'm dumping your ass, you loser!"

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Bwahahahahahhahaha!

[vegablack62.livejournal.com]

Are you sure that all they smoked was pot? Perhaps this place is more sinister. Could all the stains and films and resins on the walls be from a Meth lab? People can use tin foil or a clear glass pipe to smoke meth. Though I think meth users would be more carefull about not losing any and wouldn't leave a bong behind. (Some even recapture the drug from their own pee.)

If the place smelled like a cat box, I would consider the possibiltiy. If it was it would be a danger to you.

The meat in the fridge sounds very sinister. Do they eat roadkill?

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't be surprised if they did other drugs, but from our experiences with them and their lifestyle, I'd wager it was acid and shrooms, rather than the 'hard stuff'. The tinfoil was most definitely for pot - the resin still smelled strongly, and was very much an indica strain. These folks were pretty classic tree hugging, pot smoking, animal loving neo-pagan vegans. And the resin left in the bong is the same.

The house smelled mostly of dog, really. And the shed like wet carpet and...well...meat. Our best bet on the meat is that since they were very into a 'natural' lifestyle, they most likely fed their dogs red meat rather than dog food.

[cordeliadelayne]

Wow. And very, very creepy.

[blind-nights.livejournal.com]

i had to go for the haunted one just because WHAT. ghosts. ♥

[lawliette.livejournal.com]

Ok, now i'm not the kind of girl who does this, but if you need someone to help out, lemme know. I am a sucker for this kind of insane. I totally chose "haunted" as the option :) Oh, and if its not haunted, your old tenants were dickweeds, as my icon states.

[aqua-karen.livejournal.com]

Also going for the "poorly thought out 'hey, we're leaving a shitpile, we should like, apologize, or something' message probably left while under the influence of drugs" option. "Dude, if we write it on the mirror, they'll be like, cleaning in there, and then they'll know, like, we're sorry." "Whoa, yeah, it'll blow their minds."

If it were ghosts, I'd want something more dramatic. Or else something like "God, thank goodness those idiots are gone, hi new roomies! :D"

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

We can only imagine that nearly everything they did was done under the influence of drugs. *shakes head*

Hahahaha, yeah.

[alanahikarichan.livejournal.com]

Haunted. But at least the ghost has manners! :D

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Indeed! Mr. Ghost is friendlier than the former tenants!

[being-of-water.livejournal.com]

I go to UC Santa Cruz, so I sympathize with you hun. And let me just say. Damn Dirty Hippies!

I moved into a new place the beginning of the summer, and had similar problems, not quite as bad, by any means. But I can understand the intense amount of cleaning to be done and such.

Anyways, Good Luck!

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Yes, god awful damn dirty Hippies!

Cleaning is such a pain. I'm so tired of it already. :/

THANK YOU!

[thanfiction.livejournal.com]

Holy....I am reading these posts with increasing squick and horror, and I am beginning to believe that you might be better off just burning the place to the ground, taking the insurance money, and starting again.

*considers this*

Nevermind. Lord knows what kind of fumes you would unleash. Still, I have to ask, are you taking pictures in case you come up against something that actually does require you to take them to small claims court/prove things to the homeowner's insurance/call the police?

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

Now that we have things cleaned up and sanitized, it's really a lovely little house. The dog smell is gone and most everything has been cleaned. We are getting a few things replaced this week, too.

The landlady has all the evidence of what they did to the house, and is going after them for damages.

[akhensutekh.livejournal.com]

O____________________O

I hope it is not number three because that is really scary. :(

[theladyfeylene.livejournal.com]

We'd honestly prefer a good old honest ghost as opposed to half the crap these damn dirty hippies left, at this point!

[snowpatrol89.livejournal.com]

whoah...a haunted house. Aren't you like, freaked out or something? If I saw that message I would never open the bathroom again! O__O I'm fascinated by ghosts, but they give me chills too.
