True Story | The Mysterious Flute & The Jinn of the Village
The incident took place sometime in the 1960s in a village where, at that time, there was not such a dense population and it was not as developed. This incident involves two brothers, one named Hafiz Uddin and the other Karim Uddin. Their ancestral home was in Katali village in Netrokona district. Hafiz and Karim were indeed two brothers, with Hafiz being the elder and Karim the younger. The brothers owned some rice fields, and since there was a lot of theft occurring at night—where thieves would cut and take away the ripe rice—it was common for homes to be robbed as well. During the night, it had become a regular affair for someone to sneak in and harvest the ripe rice. Therefore, they needed to guard this ripe rice.

late night guest part 2
June 19, 2018 Cyril D'Souza was asleep. She has been living alone in this small one-story house since her husband died. She has decided to move to Delhi to be with her son after retiring from her job as a hospital nurse next year. "Wow, woo, woo," Cyril was woken up by the screams of her pet Alsatian Rocky. Rocky patrols the garden all night, guarding the house. Rocky keeps screaming. Cyril's heart is racing. Something must have happened. Maybe a thief has entered the garden, otherwise Rocky wouldn't do something like this. Cyril is a brave woman. She comes out with a stick and an umbrella. The garden light is on all night. It is raining lightly. According to the calculation, Rocky is supposed to be in the shed that has been built for him in the garden. Rocky's screams have suddenly stopped. Cyril cannot see him around. Cyril, following the footprints of an adult on the wet ground of the garden, reached the Golan cha tree and shivered. “Rocky, my child!” He broke down in tears. The bloody corpse of the only companion of his lonely life was lying in the mud. Rocky was like his son. Who killed the helpless creature like this? Rocky’s head and torso were separated. Cyril sat down on his knees. Sorrowful, Cyril was unconscious for a few moments. Sambit turned around and felt someone’s presence right behind him. Cyril screamed when he saw the intruder’s face in the dim light of the garden. It goes without saying that the stranger dressed in a long black coat was not a resident of this world. There was a small bullet-sized hole in his chest. Cyril sat down on the ground of the garden trembling. There was no doubt that the hands of the clock were running towards his final hour. He was approaching with slow steps. Cyril surrendered helplessly to the angel of death in the name of God. A demonic smile played on the face of the midnight stranger as he looked at the dismembered bodies of Rocky and his shelter.

The Last Train
It was almost 12 AM. Dhaka's Dhanmondi Local Station—half of the lights were off, and the rest flickered faintly. A light mist had settled behind, and with the breeze, there was a strange scent floating—like a mixture of old paper and smoke.

She Was Buried Alive... And Survived
Title: She Was Buried Alive... And Survived The last thing I remember is my sister’s wedding. I wore navy blue. My hair curled perfectly for once. I danced, laughed, drank one glass of champagne. One. Then everything went black.

No One Lives on This Island. No One Ever Has. And No One Ever Should
Did you know this place exists? They say there’s a place on Earth more isolated than anywhere else. No people. No towns. No ships pass by. It’s called Bouvet Island, and if you looked for it on a map... you’d probably miss it. Because it doesn’t want to be found. According to long-forgotten records, it floats in the South Atlantic Ocean— about 1,100 miles from Antarctica, and 1,600 miles from South Africa. Its isolation is beyond comprehension. It’s the farthest you can get from any civilization. No native humans. No visitors. Not even shipping lanes dare pass nearby. It’s a chunk of volcanic rock buried beneath glaciers, battered by violent storms, and surrounded by endless ice. But in 1964—someone found it. A South African expedition flew over when they noticed something strange: A lifeboat. Just sitting there, on the shore. No footprints. No bodies. No shipwreck. No missing persons reports. Just that boat. Like it had washed up from nowhere. They investigated and found nothing.

The Haunting of Rumah Hantu
It was a cool evening in the bustling city of Jakarta, Indonesia. The city was alive with the hum of traffic, the call of street vendors, and the bright lights that pierced through the haze of smog. But amidst the life of this sprawling urban landscape stood a house that time had forgotten, or perhaps, one that no one dared remember.
