Ghost Story

Instead of beginning my ghost story with a frame story like Mary Shelley did with the letters in Frankenstein, I would begin my story with a less confusing approach. However, my opening would be similar to Mary Shelley's because I would take a more mysterious approach, so that the storyline would unfold as the reader goes on. I believe the letters in Frankenstein will begin to make more sense as the story starts to unravel. For example the popular horror movie Insidious seems confusing at first, but as the story goes on the audience has what some would call an "a-ha!" moment and put all of the pieces together. I find that doing this adds more suspense and it intrigues the readers, so my story will not be boring. It would also get the readers more involved with the storyline, which I believe will help evoke emotions from them to spice up the story and make it interesting.
