Thanks for the feedback Christian, this is actually the very first time that I have ever shown anything that I have written to anybody other than my partner so its all somewhat new to me so any real, constructive criticism from folk is gratefully received, thanks.

A shame that you thought that the format is cheesy and cashing in, but in all honesty I have only recently moved to my new home after living in Saigon for nearly a year so just attempted in this case to pen something, which other than the obvious supernatural element is in fact a true story, from the apartment to the strange appearence of the red paint and dead flowers that were noticed (by us both, in real life) when we left. As a result it felt off to fit the prose specifically within a strictly “fictional” narrative as we did indeed live the story somewhat, and it felt natural to write it out in this way, despite it being a little sensationalised for the story's effect.
