The Ghost in the Closet by M. K. Theodoratus is a great little short story about a young woman who goes by Dumdie.  Dumdie has been teased by her family and others as a result of her gift to see spirits.  This “gift” has recently lead to the loss of her job and her home.  She is fortunate enough to be given a chance to get herself back on her feet when she is given a spot at the Archinhauser Shelter for Homeless Women.  As soon as she moves in, however, she can tell that something is amiss and is afraid that her gift may resurface and get her kicked out of yet another place.  While this story was very short it was also very well written.  I liked the element of suspense in the story that came from what will happen to Dumbdie and the other women as a result of the ghost in the closet.
