Good, short little read. Enjoyed it rather immensely if I'm honest.

The scares, what few there are, were still good though somewhat expected.

I did like the ending, there: how Applejack notices her mother's singing, then goes on about a few other things. Literally made me forget about her even mentioning the singing and when AJ was followed back, mmf. Loved that.

Frankly, I expect this to be one of my less popular fics, simply because it's not terribly original, long or creative. :ajsleepy: I definitely could've spent more time on it, but I think it's... fine as is. Might rewrite it in the future when I have more horror experience.

Moonlight vomited through Applejack's window, muffled only a tad by the maroon curtains. It weaved and looped around her room, smacking into several walls, furniture pieces and knickknacks. And of course, it filled into her face, her eyes, her nose, covering and streaming down her blanketed body.

I respect that first line.

Finished and liked. I often have fondiness for these kind of story's. I liked the ending.

Ps. I think something like this need not be the freshest snow to be a great read ?further it gives you exprience by putting your own word's to something you have never done. you can never know what just the acting of doing for yourself will bring for you.

You'll often find your least thought out fics can be the most popular.
This was short and sweet, creepy and heartwarming both.

You deserve an upvote simply for managing to use the word 'vomit' in colourful descriptive prose.

The story itself was great, too. Not all ghosts are malicious. Some just aren't ready to leave yet, I suppose.

For one, the doors were already open, even though she distinctly remembered bolting them before she went to bed.

Me: Ooooookaaaaaaay, nope!! "At this point, AJ went back and woke up her big strong capable dependable intimidating protective brother and voiced her concerns. He got up, read to buck someone up for spooking his sister and messing with the farm. And that's exactly what happened. The end."

Personally, nothing alarms me more than when a door is not how I left it. I may not remember how everything else was, but Heaven knows I do not miss what's going on with a door. This is because the one at my grandparent's house used to just swing open while I'd be in the room minding my own business or even sleeping only to wake up to its creaking. (I later learned it was due to the wind and the door being loose in its frame but the habit was already there.)

Oh, that ending was bittersweet. I like!

Oh, I never left a real comment. Oops.

This was short, sweet, pleasant. The subversion of a ghost haunting being that of a benign one is a neat idea.

I do disagree with the description of moonlight 'vomiting.' It is clever and original, but choice of words sets the scene, and vomiting makes it seem disgusting or violent, while it is setting a scene of peaceful slumber. Tis really my only criticism.

Bruh, when I read that, I thought a pony named Moonlight was sticking her head through AJ's open window, barfing into her room. :rainbowlaugh:

I literally though about the moon with a mouth doing it xD

I think that it would be better to make an extra chapter, perhaps starting from the end of this one, like a bonus for those that wanted more. So like that, the original chapter would stay the way it was conceived.
