They're fictional, so I guess they work however the writer wants them to.

I want them to work in a warehouse. I smell A sitcom!

Once wrote a series of short stories about fantasy creatures living and working in a warehouse. My favorite were the weekending ghosts, who haunted a manor through the week, but took weekend trips to haunt the warehouse on Saturdays and Sundays to get a break from it all.

Can we read these stories anywhere?

[–] dharmacurious 1 points 1 hour ago (2 children)

Sadly not. Probably the best thing I've ever written. Several hundred pages. But they were written on old security log sheets (written as log entries while bored doing night shift security at a warehouse), and they ended up lost or destroyed when I moved. I've considered rewriting them, though.

So it was your warehouse they were haunting. Always write what you know about.

The premise sounds fun, and apparently it's informed by experience, so I hope you do!
