Dark Vision: The Reanimator

I suppose I will try... Please don't send hateful responses...

A dark being that hides in the shadows

Not a direct threat on its own

Follows other beings that take souls from bodies, but leave body in good condition

Seems to reanimate the bodies, leaving the person's mental capabilities and personality in tact

The person won't know that they do not have a soul, or even that they died

Some may remember dying, but write it off as a bad dream, or something of the sort

However, the body will will begin to slowly rot and decay over time

The victim's body can't seem to hold together without its soul

A flaw in the reanimation?

Intentional?

Why does this being do this?

Either an attempt of salvation or torture?

Either way, THE RESULTS ARE THE SAME

Maybe when we die, there's only a small window for us to pass over. If we don't, our soul deteriorates and we can't pass over.
Those who never pass stay here roaming and souless. The only way to get a chance to pass is to find another soul that we can use. Maybe those spirits just need a way over.

@TheArchivist
Not at all..
I would also think that there are some of us, housewives, mechanics, homeless, policemen, far in between, that can see those who steal souls. But ignore it as imagination.
Therefore, the hero of the story.
@TheHammer I'd love to see what you have to say about my other visions. Should I share another right now?
TheHammer · M
@TheArchivist sure why not
Interesting story. Was there any particular inspiration you had for coming up with this? We're you a protege of Steven King?

@PhoenixPhail this is one of the visions I've personally had

Maybe they took the soul of a loved one.
@TheHammer wow I never thought of that. So you think it may be because they want them back? So salvation, not torture?
TheHammer · M
What use does he have for the souls??
@TheHammer a soul is who we are. Not our bodies

@TheArchivist
I get that, but what use does he have for the souls he takes?
@TheHammer sorry I misread your comment. He doesn't take souls but follows being that do take souls. This spirit seems to follow them and bring the bodies back
