Lydia Deetz looked out her window and into the night sky. Clouds swirled into demented shapes in front of the harvest moon. To most people, such a sight would be frighting; but to her it was inspiring. Finally finishing the last cloud, she closed her sketch book and flopped onto her bed to admire her work of art. This was defiantly her best one yet.

The window slammed close with a gust of wind and the lock snapped shut. Lydia looked up with a smile. "Nice try Adam and Barbara. You can't scare me; I taught you everything you know about ghosting."

The room began to glow an eerie green and Lydia had a sinking feeling in her stomach. "Alright, honestly guys…cut it out." she said slowly getting up and realizing that the glow was coming from her mirror that sat on her dresser. It looked like something was behind the glass…

"Adam? Barbara?" she peered into the mirror seeing her reflection had been replaced with a man. His eyes shone with the same eerie green and his hair was stringy and brown. "Lydia Deetz…" he began, his lips curling into a twisted smile.

Lydia jumped back with terror. "Who do you think you are! Just watching me in my mirror! Get out of there!" she commanded, enraged that this creep had been spying on her.

"If you insist." the man replied jumping out of the glass as if it had been made out of water, "How rude of me not to introduce myself, my name is Harry Grissom."

"I don't care if your name was Sid Vicious; get out of my room or I'll…"

"You'll what, set the Maitlands on me?" Harry laughed deeply, "In fact, that's why I am here in the first place…you see your friends the Maitlands are mere acquaintances of my dear friend, Betelgeuse."

Lydia's heart skipped a beat and fought to stay standing. He had found a way to get back at her! She thought she had seen the last of the slick poltergeist but she also knew that backing down on her side of the deal would have pissed him off (I mean he did almost kill her father and what would he have done if Barbara hadn't banished him back to the Afterlife when he was a snake?) "Bee…bee…" she stammered but kept her mouth shut knowing if she summoned him accidentally, he wasn't going to return to his grave alone…

("I'll drag you down with me you two-faced son of a bitch." she could picture the murderous scowl and his rotten teeth clenched together as one of his corpsy hands pulled her down into the model…)

"Yes," Harry continued with a ruthless grin, "Don't worry, he's practically forgotten about them. All he remembers is you…how you double crossed him at the alter…how you ruined everything by backing down after he helped you out…" Lydia froze on the spot expecting Betelgeuse to jump out behind her and cover her mouth with his cold dead hands. "So he permitted me to do his bidding, to make things right…you owe him Lydia…and its women like you that I loathe the most…"

Lydia began to back away from Harry and freeze up against the wall. If she screamed he'd kill her for sure, and Betelgeuse would get her. "…For the next couple of days my dear Lydia, I'm going to settle the score. I will return at this time, when everyone is asleep and punish you." he hissed icily and fear bolted up Lydia's spine.

"You can't hurt me…you're dead…" Lydia trembled with a small voice.

Harry's face turned more ruthless and he extended his hand to caress her cheek. She gasped at how cold it was and that she could actually feel his non-existing breath. "That's where you are wrong…I can do anything I want to you…anything I want..." his hand made its way down her neck but she stopped him before he could go any further by punching him in the face and running toward the door. The door disappeared from the wall and Harry wiped a green slime off his lip. It was blood.

"Bitch, you'll pay for that." he snarled and walked toward her. His hands curled into fists and black flames shot up and danced around his hands. Lydia opened her mouth to scream but he had lunged at her, knocking her to the ground and covering her mouth with one of his fiery hands.

Her flesh began to drip off her lips and she squirmed as he pinned her to the floor. "Remember Lydia, Betelgeuse feels this is the just punishment…He's the one who sent me…"
