THREE REAL-LIFE MYSTICAL HORROR STORIES THAT HAPPENED IN THE WOODS.
**This happened about two years ago in the spring when it had already warmed up. We got tired of sitting in the parking lot and drinking beer, so we decided to gather and go somewhere. We thought about the place for quite a long time, about two weeks, but we finally decided. There was a suggestion to go to Lytkarina, to the Brides' Glade, a rather notorious place where people often die in car accidents. But back then, it hadn't yet become so heavily rumored, so we had no fears in mind. The long-awaited day came, and we set off around 2:00 pm. The road didn't please us at all; there were monuments almost every 10 meters, and everywhere were signs indicating a dangerous road section. We turned off the highway and found a nice clearing right in the middle of the forest. We spread out, and everything was more or less normal: guitar, alcohol, fun. When it got dark, we were still having fun. We didn't even notice how the fog surrounded us and decided to take a walk to the Brides' Glade.**

The cursed hotel
Jutting out of the cold, dank city fog, a massive triangular monolith erupts from the skyline. The city below, with its boxy, concrete apartment blocks, cannot match the sheer size of this bizarrely shaped building, which reaches 1,083 feet into the sky. Despite its foreboding appearance, this structure is actually a hotel—a little taller than France's Eiffel Tower or New York's Chrysler Building. With 3.9 million square feet of usable floor space and 3,000 rooms, it's large enough to rival some of the world's biggest hotels. It was even designed to include casinos and nightclubs. You'd expect it to be bustling with life, but despite its shiny facade, this hotel has never welcomed a single guest and has remained empty for nearly 30 years. This is the Ryugyong Hotel, located in one of the most repressive countries on Earth, North Korea, in its capital, Pyongyang.

The Unquiet Spirit
Start writing...Rain lashed against the grimy windows of the old Victorian mansion, a mournful counterpoint to the guttural growls emanating from within. Sergeant Riley adjusted his raincoat, the damp clinging uncomfortably to his skin. This wasn't your standard domestic disturbance; this was an exorcism gone wrong.

Echoes of the Forgotten
Echoes of the Forgotten In the curious, failed-to-remember town of Ravenswood, where time appeared to stop, stood an old, frail manor known as Blackwood House. Deserted for a really long time, the manor had an evil standing. The locals murmured stories of scary events and odd vanishings, cautioning outcasts to remain away. However, the house's dull appeal demonstrated that it was excessively enticing for some.

Shadows of the Past. Content Warning.
Shadows of the Past Settled profoundly inside the thick, premonition woods of Blackwood, an old house stood deserted and rotting. Blackwood House, once a terrific domain, had for quite some time been the subject of dull legends and murmured stories in the nearby town. It was supposed to be reviled, its lobbies reverberating with the tortured cries of the individuals who had died inside its walls. Few considered drawing nearer, yet the individuals who did never returned something very similar.

STORY ABOUT OLD FARMHOUSE... The old farmhouse had stood for centuries, its stone walls bearing witness to generations of laughter, tears, and secrets.

The windows, once bright and cheerful, now stared out like empty eyes, their panes cracked and broken. The door, once welcoming, now hung crookedly on its hinges, as if pushed open by an unseen hand.
