The Forgotten Hospital: Where the Lights Never Truly Go Out
On the edge of town, hidden behind overgrown weeds and a rusting iron gate, stands an old hospital long forgotten by the world. Locals call it Mercy Hill, though no one can remember when it last offered any mercy at all. It has been abandoned for decades, its windows shattered and walls stained by time. Yet at night, people claim they see lights flickering inside — as if the building refuses to die.

The Lighthouse is the First Horror Movie I Have Seen with Multiple Possible Endings
Have you ever seen a horror film that you really loved and became obsessed with, but you are left conflicted with the ending? I’m not saying this is a bad thing, I think it’s a genius move on the director.

The Whispering Attic
When the Wren family moved into the weathered Victorian house at the edge of Hollowpine, they believed they had found a bargain. Tall and narrow with ivy-twined pillars, the home stood alone at the end of an old gravel road, surrounded by towering oak trees. It had a certain charm — faded, but undeniable. Mr. Wren, a history professor, called it “a home with character.” His wife, Rachel, hoped it would be a fresh start after her mother’s death. For their daughter, Lila, it was a dream — a real-life haunted house to explore.

Room 404: Do Not Enter
Part 1: The Check-In The Fairhaven Hotel was old but elegant—an aging five-story building nestled quietly in a forgotten corner of the city. Its marble floors, vintage wallpaper, and brass chandeliers whispered of a long-lost golden age. Ethan, a travel blogger known for reviewing haunted and abandoned places, had heard about Fairhaven from an obscure Reddit thread.

There’s a Man Standing in My Backyard. He Hasn’t Moved in Three Days
It started Sunday morning. I was drinking coffee in the kitchen, half-awake, looking out over the yard through the glass door when I noticed him—just standing by the treeline. Still. Hands at his sides. Staring.

I Bought a Haunted Mirror Off Facebook Marketplace — Now It Won’t Let Me Sleep
It started with a Facebook Marketplace listing. > “Antique Victorian mirror — $30 OBO. Must pick up. ASAP.” No details, just a grainy photo and a location only twenty minutes away. I’d just moved into my new apartment and needed something to fill the blank wall in my hallway. I messaged the seller. She responded in seconds.

The Lantern Path. Content Warning.
They told us never to follow the lights in Barlow Wood. Not that anyone warned me directly. I wasn’t from here. I came with Delilah—my partner—after her mother passed. The cabin was part of her inheritance, buried somewhere between the dying pines, shrouded in mist thick enough to choke on. She called it a “quiet place to grieve.”

👾 Polybius: The Video Game That Didn't Just Play You — It Played With Your Mind. Content Warning.
In the murky haze of early 1980s arcades—amid the buzz of CRT screens and the scent of stale popcorn—there was said to be a machine unlike any other. Unmarked, dark, and strangely magnetic, the game known as Polybius allegedly appeared in a few suburbs of Portland, Oregon… and then disappeared forever.

The Round Room
No one remembered building the house at the edge of Leland Hill. It appeared in the county records one spring listed as "abandoned." Locals said it had been there forever-but no one could say what "forever" meant anymore.

Darkness
“I just want the pain to be over.” She thinks to herself as she silently sobs sitting at her office desk. The dwelling thoughts flood her head that life is just one big cruel joke. At one end of the spectrum her fights with her kids' father have mellowed out, but at the other end her life with her wife is still an ongoing tornado of chaos. Homeless and crashing at a family friend's place, the never-ending dread circles her mind “How am I going to survive this?” She hears soft voices in the background as her kids are playing on their phones in the other room. “I know I have to be strong for them.” Even at her lowest she knows her kids love her with all their little hearts, but even their love sometimes isn't strong enough to fight the swarming negative thoughts she fights inside. She tells herself – My kids would be better off without me. Or she tries to convince herself that the older the kids get the less they love her and need her. She knows these thoughts aren't the truth but in dark times the demons in her head are seriously convincing. To quiet the darkness, she goes outside, grabs the rig, sits in the chair and takes such a big hit her lungs weren't big enough to hold it in. She coughs so hard her lungs feel like they could collapse at any second but as she regains her breath the darkness slowly fades to the background. She feels lightheaded like the ground beneath her is swaying ever so gently. She feels the breeze in her hair and just for a second, she thinks maybe I can survive this.
