The Library of Lost Souls: A Haunted Place Where Books Hold the Dead
The Story: It was a forgotten place, buried deep within the fading memories of a dying village—Bardham Hollow, nestled somewhere between the woods and the mountains, where the sun never quite shined properly. Among the crumbling stone houses and overgrown paths stood a strange building of black bricks: an abandoned library, rumored to house more than just old books. Locals called it The Library of Lost Souls. No one went near it. The wooden sign outside had long rotted away, and the rusted iron gate screeched even in the absence of wind. Children were warned not to play near it, and the elderly crossed themselves while passing by. But to Ayaan Malhotra, a 29-year-old folklore researcher from Delhi, this was the perfect mystery. He had spent the past three years chasing legends across India. When he heard about Bardham Hollow and its haunted library, he knew he had to go.

Whisperglass: The Mirror's Call
Chapter 1: The Shadow in the Mirror The night was thick with silence. Crickets chirped faintly in the distance as the full moon bathed the narrow dirt road in a cold, silver light. At the end of the path stood an abandoned house, its roof sagging and its wooden walls leaning like an old man on his last breath.

The Quiet Apartment
It was ideal for someone starting from scratch. She told herself the creaks were normal, the dim hallway lights just old wiring. However, what gnawed at her was the silence. She had no idea who her neighbors were. Through the thin walls, there are no muffled voices or footsteps above. Not even a dog barking or a door slamming. Just… silence.
