Sean is a blind boy living near the edges of reality, where the dead slip back to the world of the living. Now he can hear them.

A short horror story by Edwin Crowe (first published as a creepypasta on the 'nosleep' subreddit) "My Father Punished Me When I Talked to Ghosts" tells the story of Sean, a blind boy living alone with his father near the edges of reality - where the dead slip back to the world of the living. This strange coming of age story deals with themes of abuse, disability, and the power of friendship to rise above them both.
