The Voice Coming From the Empty Room
A Voice That Shouldn't Exist When I inherited my grandfather's old house, I expected dust, memories, and a long list of repairs. What I didn't expect was a voice coming from a room that had been empty for years. The house sat alone on a quiet hill overlooking the town, its wooden walls weathered by decades of rain and wind. My grandfather had lived there alone until his death, and after his passing, nobody had occupied the property. The first few weeks were uneventful as I cleaned rooms, sorted old belongings, and tried to make the place feel like home. Then, one night shortly after midnight, I heard someone speaking upstairs.

The Last Patient of the Abandoned Mental Hospital
Blackwood Mental Hospital had been abandoned for nearly thirty years, but the stories surrounding it refused to die. The massive psychiatric institution stood alone on the edge of a dense forest, its broken windows staring across the landscape like empty eyes. Local residents avoided the area after dark, and countless urban legends claimed the hospital was haunted. Some people reported hearing screams from the upper floors late at night. Others claimed they had seen figures moving behind windows in a building that no longer had electricity. As a journalist specializing in paranormal investigations and abandoned places, I had heard dozens of similar stories before. Most of them turned out to be nothing more than exaggerated rumors. I believed Blackwood Mental Hospital would be no different.

The Ghosts of Brackwell Manor Chapter 2
‘Maybe we should have gone to the crack den,’ said William, surveying the park with a disdainful expression. Ava tutted and began marching along the main pathway, which circled the raised area in the park’s centre, which could be reached via several sets of stone stairs with fancy balustrades. ‘I suppose your garden is bigger.’

The Voice Coming From the Empty Room
The first time I heard the voice, I assumed it was the wind. The house was old enough to make almost any sound imaginable. Floorboards creaked when nobody walked on them. Doors shifted slightly in their frames during cold nights. Pipes groaned behind the walls as if something were moving through them. After inheriting the property from my grandfather, I had spent nearly a month living there alone, and I had become accustomed to its strange noises. That was why I didn't pay much attention when I heard what sounded like someone speaking upstairs.

My Reflection Started Living Its Own Life
The first time I noticed something was wrong, it lasted less than a second. I was brushing my teeth before work, staring absentmindedly into the bathroom mirror. It was an ordinary morning with the same routine I had followed for years. The same apartment. The same sink. The same tired face staring back at me. Then I blinked, and my reflection blinked a fraction of a second later. It was so subtle that I almost convinced myself I had imagined it. I stood frozen for a moment, toothbrush still in my hand, staring at the mirror. Nothing happened. My reflection stared back exactly as it should. Feeling foolish, I finished getting ready and left for work.

The Midnight Oil
The flames were closing in; she couldn't see her way around for all the smoke. Couldn't breathe. Why had she done this alone? Why did she always insist on doing these things alone? She tried to hold her shirt over her mouth to filter the air, but it didn’t help. She started coughing; her throat burned all the way to her lungs. Coughing didn’t help clear them; she just inhaled more as she breathed in. Her chest ached and shuddered with each ragged gasp. She crashed into a tree and held onto it as she began to fade out, and it was warm, too warm. She felt blisters forming on her hands already. She looked back at the direction she’d come from. There, in the distance, a dark shape emerged from the billowing smoke, moving quickly, running. She needed to keep going. To get away, but she couldn’t, it was too late.
