playing peek-a-boo with ghosts at the edge of reality

[transmothra]

i forgot to mention this yesterday. it broke my heart.

apparently, my grandfather had been asking about where his dad was, who died over twenty years ago.

and playing peek-a-boo.

my dad and uncle definitely inherited Grandpa's gift of denial.

Actually, that version of what my last name means is false. In recent years, I've been a big fan of it being translated as "of the Count" just because it is a more interesting story.

*Winks*

I was just offering a theory, the possibility that your grandfather's memories might be revisiting him. He may be seeing people like his parents or others who have been dead for years. Actually, I remember reading about older folks needing a great amount of time dedicated to recalling the distant events of their lives. It is something of the mind's way of preparing for the end of a lifetime.

Not all spectres need to be supernatural in origin.
