A slightly clichéd story

Shany 2022-03-21 09:02:04

Norman is a special boy who has been able to see things others cannot see since he was a child, commonly known as ghosts. But this special ability didn't make him happy, instead it brought him huge annoyance, and everyone around him thought he was an outlier, even his parents.

One day, his uncle, who also has psychic abilities, told Norman that the evil witch would reappear in the world, and Norman had to find a way to prevent the tragedy from happening. He broke through many obstacles and finally influenced the witch.

The witch revealed that she was what she was, but she was really just a little girl longing for love, and a poor child.
