I’m looking for short stories and books that involve this concept to some degree.
I read about this kinda creepy and unexplained anecdote by former talk show host Dick Cavett, where a guest on his show died during taping. Despite the episode never being broadcast, for years Dick has run into fans who seem to vividly recall not only seeing that episode on TV, but “the look on your face when your guest passed away”.
It can an unnerving mystery or horror, something supernatural or more realism, maybe the character thought it was a false memory but it actually did happen, maybe just affecting a couple people who are unsettled by something from the past or involving a lot of people like in that Cavett anecdote, just something involving the idea of distorted false/ apparently false memory.
