The Rat Man Chronicles
The midnight air clung to the city like a shroud, the flickering street lights casting eerie shadows on the damp pavement. Mary Hammond walked through the dimly lit streets, her footsteps echoing with an unsettling persistence. The weight of the unsolved cases she had been researching bore down on her like the oppressive darkness that blanketed the city.

The Eerie Attic
I don’t believe in ghosts, but …” After all, no matter how a ghost story begins, it always hinges on the notion that, come on, of course we believe in ghosts! A few years ago, I moved into a one-bedroom apartment in Melbourne, Australia,” they went on to recall. “It was my first time living on my own. The apartment block had been built in the 1930s. I’d been there for a few months when I came home from work one day and went into the bathroom. I saw something strange: A wooden board, which had covered a hole in the ceiling that led to a small attic space, lay fractured in two pieces on the ground. I examined the pieces. The board was an inch thick, and it would have taken Bruce Lee to break it. I thought the landlord had sent someone to work on the attic. I was frozen stiff with fear. Someone is up there for sure, I thought. I emailed pictures to the landlord, asking if anyone had been there (with an undertone of annoyance, since she hadn’t warned me). Her reply read, ‘Please call me as soon as you are able to.’ I called, and she explained that her last two tenants had said the same thing happened. She promised to replace the board, and she did.

The Serbian dancing lady
The Serbian Dancing Lady had always been a source of fascination and fear for the people of Kragujevac. It was said that she had been a brilliant dancer in her time, but her final performance had ended in tragedy. The legend went that her dance had been so frenzied and wild that she had collapsed on stage, dead from exhaustion. Since that day, her spirit had been trapped in the grand palace, forever performing her dance and seeking revenge on those who disturbed her.

The Abandoned Asylum
Deep in the heart of the countryside, there was an old asylum that had been abandoned for decades. The building was dilapidated, the windows boarded up, and the surrounding grounds overgrown with weeds and tangled vines. For years, the asylum had stood as a dark reminder of a bygone era, a time when mental illness was misunderstood and mistreated.
