MIDNIGHT FOOTSTEPS…

Who was it?💀

By Taha Bin FaisalPublished 3 years ago 2 min read

Once upon a moonlit night, two brave friends, Emma and Jack, embarked on an adventure to an abandoned hospital shrouded in a sinister reputation. They had heard chilling tales of paranormal activities that echoed through the deserted corridors, igniting their curiosity and stirring their souls with a mix of excitement and trepidation.

As they approached the decrepit building, its eerie facade emerged from the shadows, casting an ominous silhouette against the pale moon. The air grew colder, carrying whispers of forgotten souls and the faint scent of decay. Undeterred, Emma and Jack cautiously stepped inside, their hearts pounding with anticipation.

Inside, the hospital lay cloaked in darkness, broken windows permitting only slivers of moonlight to penetrate the oppressive silence. A chilling wind whistled through the halls, causing their skin to prickle with apprehension. Each creak of the floorboards felt like a distant cry of anguish, and every flicker of light created grotesque shadows that danced menacingly along the walls.

As they ventured deeper into the labyrinthine corridors, strange occurrences unfolded around them. Whispers echoed from unseen depths, the pitter-patter of phantom footsteps followed their every move, and unexplained cold gusts brushed against their skin. The hospital seemed alive, its ghostly inhabitants watching their every step.

Emma and Jack pressed on, drawn inexorably toward a forbidden room at the heart of the hospital. Its door stood ajar, beckoning them closer with a foreboding allure. Inside, they discovered a haunting sight—a dusty operating theater frozen in time, complete with rusty surgical instruments and faded bloodstains.

In the center of the room, an old surgical table caught their attention. Resting atop it was a worn diary, its pages filled with cryptic writings. Emma's curiosity overwhelmed her, and she began deciphering the enigmatic words while Jack scanned the room uneasily.

As Emma read aloud passages about a renowned doctor whose experiments had gone terribly wrong, a sudden noise startled them both. They turned to see a ghostly figure, draped in tattered hospital garments, gliding towards them. Fear gripped their hearts, and they fled from the room, leaving the diary behind.

Outside, gasping for breath, they contemplated the mysteries they had witnessed. The diary's revelation of the doctor's horrifying experiments and the apparition they encountered weighed heavily on their minds. They realized they had only scratched the surface of the hospital's dark history.

Days turned into weeks, and Emma and Jack couldn't shake the memory of that haunted hospital. Determined to uncover the truth, they returned, armed with cameras, audio recorders, and a newfound bravery. But to their dismay, the hospital had vanished without a trace, leaving behind an empty lot overgrown with weeds.

The disappearance of the hospital only deepened the enigma, leaving Emma and Jack with more questions than answers. Were they merely caught in an elaborate illusion? Or had they stumbled upon a portal to a supernatural realm that allowed glimpses into a forgotten past?

To this day, Emma and Jack search for answers, forever haunted by their encounter and the secrets of the abandoned hospital. And as the moon rises, casting a pale glow on the world, a lingering mystery lingers—a chilling reminder of the unknown horrors that await those who dare to venture into the realms of the paranormal.
