Summary
Mitch has never called them ghosts. They're the "Silver People" or, sometimes, the "Silvers" for short. He's seen and talked to them since he was a little kid, and the worst trouble they've ever caused is the occasional cold spot when oblivious living people just can't seem to find the right place to sit. Some Silvers he even loves in a way, like Charles, his nearly constant companion since he and Scott moved into their first L.A. apartment.
The problem is, the Silver People aren't the only things out there. He's seen entities ("entities," for God's sake!) that are grotesque, or creepy, or definitely not something he appreciates encountering in his bathroom in the dead of night. Worst of all, though, is one he hasn't come across in a long, long time, though it's fed his nightmares and haunted the edges of his awareness for nearly twenty years.
The last place he expects to meet it again is in Scott and Mark's living room.
