The "Dead Girl" Story - Why It's Dangerous to Simplify Her

Why do so many stories center around the mystery of a beautiful dead girl? She’s idealized and is often treated as a mystery to be solved. She’s the supposed focus of the story, but what we’re really seeing is the story of the people around her left alive to pick up the pieces. The portrait of her is mainly a reflection of who is telling the story, and in stories we do get to hear the dead girl’s voice there’s a tension between the angelic memorial and the real story.
