Why would anyone think a real person depicted in fiction would be accurate?
 
It seems like for these types of ghost stories to work, you either have to be a child or mentally be one, like people who get scared reading creepypastas.

@Background Pony #74DB  
you be surprised how common that is. King Richard the 3rd of England is nothing like how he is portrayed in the Shakespeare play.

@wselfwulf  
How is it any good if I’m laughing/cringing/facepalming at the stupid decisions and character assassinations? How is that the default of a ghost story? Who made that a rule? That just sounds like an excuse.  
Am I the only one that thinks the more realistic something is, the scarier it is?

@Background Pony #74DB  
well yea if you go in normal thinking and not enjoy the ghost story for being a ghost story.

@wselfwulf  
Ohhh, okay my bad.

@wselfwulf  
So ghost stories are awful by default, then.

I don’t think that’s the idea behind this. think the artist just wanted to Draw Twilight as a Ghost.

@Background Pony #74DB  
that’s the point. most ghost stories fall apart if you think about it in a logical way.

G4 purist.

@wselfwulf  
But where’s the good ghost story?  
And if your story falls apart just by thinking, then…

@Crunchtime  
Love this comment so much!

Twilight, have a Snickers.

@Enmity1498  
never let logic get in the way of a good ghost story

facepalm  
Twilight would never, EVER react in this way to anypony! Why the hatred? Why so much salt in this one image? This just seems evil in so many ways! Magic isn’t anyponys to give-it needs to be shared by everypony! Some people don’t get that, I guess

“I’ve got thoughts”… I’m too scared to know what these “thoughts” are.

the ghost of twilight sparkle would make a good Halloween episode
