Thanks for the explanation, dapoet! :-)<br/><br/>As for the ideas I have for the future plot, it'd fun if the scary parts slowly build up and that not a lot happens yet at the start of the story, in the sense of scary stuff. Since the son lives partially in his fantasy world it'd make sense if he was the first one to encounter an unusual encounter, but he would treat it as something normal, and could tell the rest about what happened during dinner.<br/><br/>Do you have any pictures of the house, dapoet and firefly, so we can imagine what the house is like? It'd make sense if we have a basic sketch/ floor plan of the house lay out too. I hope that an attic and basement will be included, isolated areas are great scary places. A large shack in the garden could also be a nice addition.<br/><br/>Another thing I wondered about was how much every daylife is a part of the story? Will we have scenes where the children go to school, the parents go to work, perhaps include life outside the house as well? Personally I think that for character development such scenes could be an awesome addition, even if it temporarily hinders our ability to interact with each other. It doesn't have to be anything long either, but between the scary bits (which I think will mostly be at night, when they're home) it could be nice to have some scenes where things are normal as well. Even during those scenes the ghosts could still make an appearance. For example, the boy ghost could be a classmate of the son, that only sees. He would interact with the ghost in the class where the ghost could sit next to him, while everybody else just sees an empty desk next to him. The father could be seduced at work by the realtor ghost who takes on the form of a secretary.<br/><br/><br/>I also had an idea for another ghost, called 'the lost soul'. This ghost could be either friendly, evil, or simply lost, but would never interact directly with the characters. The characters could see this ghost wandering around the house at night (but never more than one character who sees him at a time), make strange noises at night, like footsteps outside the bedroom door, dragging a rattling chain behind him when he walks through the house, touch one of the characters and breath that character in the ear when nobody else is there, etc.<br/><br/>Basically the lost soul would only stimulate a single sense at a time and only to one character at a time. This ghost could also be responsible for displacing items around the house.<br/><br/><br/>I might have more ideas later on, but this stuff occured to me on the way to work and I figured I'd post it here. ^_^
