Prologue:

If walls could talk, what stories would they tell? Tales of love and loss, triumph and tragedy, secrets and scandals that have taken place before their very eyes. Walls witness it all, silent observers of the passing of time.

But what if these walls had a voice? What if they could tell us their stories, in their own words, revealing the secrets and events that have taken place in front of them? Would we be able to handle the truth, or would we be too afraid to listen?

In this story, the walls have a voice, and they are ready to speak. From the decaying walls of an abandoned hospital to the ancient stones of the Great Wall of China, each wall has its own story to tell. So, listen carefully, for you may never look at walls the same way again.

Chapter I - Hospital’s Morgue

If walls could talk, they would tell you the story of the abandoned hospital, a decaying structure that still haunts the dreams of those who dare to enter. I, the wall of the hospital’s morgue, have been here since the building was erected in the early 1900s, and I have seen it all.

The hospital was once a beacon of hope, a place where the sick and injured came to be healed. But as time went on, it became clear that the hospital was hiding a dark secret. Patients were disappearing, and no one knew where they were going.

It wasn't until the late 1920s that the truth was revealed. A young nurse, who had grown suspicious of the hospital's practices, decided to investigate. What she found was beyond her worst nightmares. The hospital was performing experiments on the patients, experiments that were gruesome and inhumane. The nurse tried to alert the authorities, but she was silenced by the hospital's staff.

The hospital continued to operate in secret, its walls hiding the unspeakable horrors that were being committed within. But it wasn't until the hospital's director died, and the hospital was shut down, that the truth was finally exposed.

Chapter II - The Abandoned Hospital

As the years went by, the hospital fell into disrepair. The once-busy corridors grew silent, the walls began to crumble, and the morgue where I stand now became a place of darkness and decay. But the horrors that were committed within these walls never truly left.

It wasn't until a group of teenagers decided to explore the abandoned hospital that things began to change. They saw it as a challenge, a way to prove their bravery to each other. But they had no idea what they were getting themselves into.

Late at night, I heard the sound of footsteps echoing through the empty corridors. The teenagers were exploring, but they didn't know the danger that lurked within the hospital's walls. They thought they were alone, but they were wrong.

As they made their way through the hospital, they began to feel a chill in the air, a sense of unease that grew with every step. They could hear whispers, and voices that spoke in hushed tones, and they could feel eyes watching them from the shadows.

It wasn't long before they realized that they were not alone. The ghosts of the hospital's past were still here, their spirits trapped within these walls. They could see the patients, their bodies twisted and broken, the victims of the hospital's experiments.

The teenagers tried desperately to find a way out, but the hospital seemed to have a life of its own, the walls shifting and changing, trapping them in a never-ending maze. They knew they were going to die.

One by one, they were taken by the ghosts of the hospital's past, their screams echoing through the empty corridors. It was a fate that I had seen before, but it still filled me with a sense of dread. I could feel their fear, their desperation, and their hopelessness.

Chapter III - The Family

Days passed, and the teenagers were never found. Their parents searched for them, but the hospital seemed to have swallowed them whole. It wasn't until a new family moved into the hospital that the horror started again.

Lili and Tom, along with their two children, decided to buy the hospital and turn it into their home. They were fascinated by its history and the stories of its past, and they believed that they could bring new life to its decaying walls.

They spent months renovating, painting the walls, and replacing the floors. But no matter how hard they tried, the hospital seemed to resist their efforts. The walls would crack, the floors would rot, and the windows would shatter.

Strange things started to happen. Doors would open and close on their own, and the family could hear footsteps echoing through the empty halls. They tried to ignore it at first, but it became clear that they were not alone.

The ghosts of the hospital's past had returned, and they were more violent than ever. They would move objects, whisper in their ears, and torment them in their dreams. The family tried to call upon a priest, medium, and shaman to help them exorcise the hospital's spirits, but none of them could rid the place of its curse.

It wasn't until the family found a hidden room in the basement that they realized the true horror of the hospital. The room was filled with medical equipment, jars of preserved organs, and the remains of the hospital's victims.

The family knew they had to do something before it was too late. They gathered everything they could find, doused the hospital in gasoline, and set it ablaze. The hospital burned to the ground, taking the ghosts of its past with it.

As the flames engulfed the walls, I felt a sense of relief. The horror that had haunted these halls for so long was finally gone. But the memories of the hospital's past would live on, forever trapped within my walls.
